love has been waiting, patient and kind.

I do not have a crush. I do not have a crush. I do not have a crush. I do not have a crush.

a crush is the curse of a silly girl. ever longing. ever hoping. ever crying.

I do not. have a crush.

i am not weighed down by the mediocre thoughts and maladies of infatuation.

a crush is a curse to a silly girl.

i do not have a crush.

i remember every word, i cling to every thought given. i do not giggle and bat my eyes.

i stand confident in all my womanlike ways.

i. do. not. have. a. crush.

i have a hope. a glimmer. a light in the distance, like a house calling you home.

a love is like medicine to a wounded soul.

i do not have a crush. i do not have a crush. i do not have a crush.
