If Only You Could See

 

If Only You Could See 

 

Every night I think of the way society is.

Making people feel welcome and appreciated is my role.

It’s like that old saying, “ treat others how you want to be treated”.

That feeling when you’re down and besties have your back. 

He always make me feel appreciated on my worst/ugly days. 

I never felt this way before.

He is like a close friend, but we have strange tensions towards liking each other. 

Haters always criticizing me for my skin on the outside, but don’t see me on the inside. 

Always asking questions I don’t want to have an answer for. 

Guess that’s how society is.

He doesn’t judge me for who I am.

When not getting people to notice in that glam life, that special someone finds a place in your heart forever.

 

Writing notes to your journal to grab every tension that words weren’t said .

Talking about classwork or a little joke in the hallways counts. 

The mentality of others noticing our bond soon try to split us apart.

The moments when we both laugh together.

The moments when we sit close or next to each other.

The moments when society finds your love spot and crushes. 

But all seem to fill back in our hearts when we meet again. 

 

Friends crack jokes at lunch about what happened.

Bringing confidence to me.

Making me feel special that you can do it if he’s meant to be.

Mostly feel this boost in my mind that just do it. 

Being this risk-taker person that could my life forever. 

 

Feeling this power of love and depression when I try my own thing, someone ruins

Passion for love is strong and determine to figure out.

Blushing everytime when he's in my view

the smiles we give to show communication

Not telling others letting others know this strong power.

Something when storm clouds move and we’re the sunshine.

Or when Scopios strikes and Aquarians come to cool off.

Society comes between when magic was about to happen.
