I like you way too much

You're always in my head

You never leave my thoughts

I think it may be a crime

To like someone so much

Your smile

Your laugh

Your beautiful eyes

Everything about you

Drives me crazy

You make me smile

And laugh

I could never tell you aloud

But I think I'm a criminal

For liking you so much

The author's comments:

I'm a hopeless romantic, falling for someone I can't ever have. Being alone is one thing, liking someone is different. I'm vulnerable when I write and this goes out to the one who makes me feel different in the best possible way.
