He's perfect, he’s charming, in every way.

He laughs, and he says what I think he should say.

He dreams all my dreams, and he wants things my way.

He makes me smile for most of the day.

But I just want my feelings to cease and desist,

I’m in love with a boy, who doesn’t exist.

I found him in a book in Row 3 yesterday,

At Cascade Public Library, shelf Letter K.

Some random girl wrote him, but I call him mine.

The moment I met him, I liked him just fine.

He seemed like my type and the more that I read,

He crept deeper and deeper inside of my head.

‘Til now when I sleep, I have dreams that he lives,

Not just in my thoughts - although that’s where he is -

But right in my town, or somewhere that’s close by,

And if I can see him, I might catch his eye.

The more I think of him, the more that I find,

He can’t possibly only exist in my mind.

I saw him at band eating lunch one nice day,

And my heart started beating in quite an odd way.

I couldn’t believe that I’d seen him at last,

And my vain hopelessness seemed so far in the past.

But he doesn’t like me I guess, so I’m sad.

I thought that he would, and it’s really too bad.

So I just wish my feelings would cease and desist.

‘Cause the boy that I love, he doesn’t exist.
