I have loved you

Always

From afar

Since we were children

I have been infatuated with the way you say my name

The way you made me laugh

The way I smiled at your texts

The way you were always there

I have loved you

Always

From afar

And you loved me back

Little sister you used to call me

and it broke my heart into exactly 

1,234,567 pieces

Because we will never love the same

I have loved you 

Always

From afar

Feeling jealous of the girls that stole your heart from me

Because I wanted your love all to myself

I am selfish with my love

I have loved you 

Always 

From afar

But being forced to call you brother

Made me feel like incest

Because you thought of me as family

and I wanted something so much more

I dreamt of all the different ways I’d show just how much I loved you

But they stayed that way: just dreams

I have loved you

Always

From afar

And I will forever

Even if you do not feel the same

My feelings are unwavered and I will stay devoted to you

Because I have loved you always

I had a crush on one of my closest friends, and I wanted to tell them so badly, but I didn't because I knew they didn't feel the same way.
