Her

I see him

I smile

I whisper to my friends

His eyes make me sigh

His voice makes me swoon

But will I ever tell him this?

No.

I can't ruin our friendship

So I'll pretend

Yeah, I just pretend

Nothing can get through my mask

I am the master of camouflage

I am just his friend

And he'll never know

Because he'd hate me

Him

I see her

I hide my grin

I'd never tell my friends. They'd laugh.

Her smile makes my heart pound

Her lips make me dizzy

But will I ever tell her this?

No.

She'd get so mad at me

So I'll pretend.

Yeah, Ill just pretend

I'll talk to her about other girls

I'll tease her

And she'll never know.

Because she'd turn me down.

Her.

Why is he teasing me?

Why is he being so mean?

Can't he see that it hurts me?

He is so oblivious…

Or is he?

In my dreams he is mine

But in reality…

He isn't.

So I try hide my tears

But it doesn't work

Because maybe that's what he wants…

To make me angry…

To not be my friend…

It hurts…
So bad.

Him.

Why is the teasing getting to her?

I'm not trying to be mean.

Can't she see that?

She is so oblivious…

Or is she?

In my dreams she is mine

But in reality…

She never will be.

So I'll stop.

And I'll ask her what's wrong.

Because maybe that's what she wants…

I can't understand her…

Can't understand girls in general…

I don't want to hurt her…
I hate seeing her like that.

Her.

He asked me what was wrong.

So I told him.

I got mad…

I said things…
I gave away my secret.

He walked away.

Now he is going to hate me.

Never going to talk to me again.

What am I going to do?

He isn't like me.

Us being friends was such a fluke

And now even that is gone.

I hate it.

Why can't I stop crying?

Him.

When I asked her what was wrong.

She told me.

She got mad

She said things…
She told me she loved me.

So I walked away.

I hated myself for being so mean to her. I didn't deserve her .

How could I ever talk to her again

What am I going to do?

She isn't like me.

Us being friends was like a dream come true

But now…

She's mad

Why can't I stop crying?

Her.

He came to me again.

And…

Was crying.

I'd never seen him cry before.

Confusion was rampant

I held him through the tears.

There were so many.

He said he was sorry.

He said…he loved me too.

I held him tighter.

My heart thundered.

My eyes watered.

But why was he still crying?

Him

I went to her again.

And…

I was crying.

I hated myself for crying in front of her.

Shame was rampant.

She held me through the tears.

I wanted to hold her.

I said I was sorry.

I said…I loved her too.

She cried.

My heart thundered.

I looked up.

I was still crying.

Her.

We held each other then

Under the foyer

His strong arms wrapped around me

And his sobbs stopped.

Mine didn't.

He whispered things in my ears.

He cared about me

He always had

I whispered back.

I looked into his eyes.

I ran my hands through his hair.

Life is funny…

We are so naïve.

But we loved each other

And right then…

That was all that mattered.

Him.

We held each other then

Under the foyer

I wrapped my arms wrapped around her

And I made myself stop crying.

She didn't stop for a little while yet.

I whispered things in her ears.

She whispered back.

The same things

She cared about me too…

I relished in her smile.

I touched her lips with mine.

Life is funny…

We are so naïve.

But we loved each other

And right then…

That was all that mattered.
