Secret Someone

It seems like yesterday we were just small.

When I used to act like I was older than him,

And he'd be the one laughing when I fall.

But we were great friends,

And how we never wanted the day to end.

We would ride our bikes together,

And tell jokes that make us laugh.

We would also play hide and seek and tag.

And how we would always play soccer.

And he'll play real rough.

We had so much fun together.

So many tears, so many laughs and so many memories.

Ones I will never forget.

And he was the funniest guy I've ever met.

Then when we were growing up just becoming teens,

I noticed he was becoming really cute.

But it felt like he was becoming mute.

Not literally, but we didn't talk as much as we did before.

Then how I wished we would have talked more.

But as the years passed on, we each had our own thing.

He was with the guys and I was with the girls.

So we started drifting our separate ways.

Like a ship sailing out to sea.

Because there were so many things on which we disagreed.

Then we started having many conflicts and many fights.

That made us ignoring each other,

Not daring to catch each other's glimpse of sight.

Then I remember this special night, we sang a duet.

That everything just seems to fade away having no regrets.

Then after that we were friends again.

So one day, when I was alone, nearly about to cry,

Thinking life isn't fair, he came to show that he cared.

He came and asked, "Are you okay?"

Something I wanted to hear another boy say.

I shrugged and said "yes", even if I wasn't.

Then he said, "You look emo, you should put your hair back."

I paused at the thought, I smiled at him.

And he smiled back.

Then I said "Nahhhh."

Never thought I'd fall in love with him but I did.

Because now he was the one to catch me when I fall.
