About A Boy
No, no. This isn't About A Boy which starred Hugh Grant, which was fantastic by the way... (it featured Hugh Grant, and anything that has Hugh Grant in it is automatically fabulous) It's about a boy I used to have a crush on. It was a short-lived crush, especially when I moved on to another boy. Haha! I'm so fickle. But hey, I only had 2 crushes in my 18 years of life. The second one was more long-lasting.. Lasted for about half a year, I think. Not all of my friends know whom the second guy is, so if you know, please don't announce in a loud voice, please!
Anyhoo, before I trail off again, here's a, um, something on the (first) boy:
Sometimes I wonder if I had told you how I felt
Would something have happened between us?
Would it be awkward when you reject me? (As I fully know you would)
Would it be funny when you tell your friends? (Laughing at me behind my back)
Or would it have meant nothing?
For I'm just a girl, among the midst of many others.
Sometimes I wonder what it would be like
To have you feel for me the way I do
And I would dream (So many dreams)
And I would fantasise ( So many times)
But then I'd wake up
And I remember, you have eyes for another.
One day I came across your picture
I expect my heart to beat
Crazily (like a hyena's laughter)
Rapidly (like the blink of an eye)
Yet I surprised myself
I no longer felt for you the way I used to.
Is it a process of growing up?
Or simply forgetting why I liked you?
I try to figure out (oh, how hard I tried!)
Trying to pinpoint the problem (give me anything!)
So I told myself
It's because your teeth are straight, no longer crooked in that cute way.
Funny, isn't it?
To fall in love with crooked teeth
You had pointy little fangs
Your front teeth stuck out when you smiled
So I guess the secret's out
I was attracted not to you but to your teeth!
No, not your teeth
That's simply ridiculous
I was attracted to your smile (Your pointy, crooked smile)
The way the sun shines in you (So bright it was blinding)
You brought out the best in me
And for that, I thank you.
Okay, let me clarify first. It's NOT a poem. It's simply how I felt. So no criticising me on my rhyming scheme or stanza length or whatever!
