You were the first person I'd met

Who was never cruel or mean,

You never glanced with scorn

At my hoody and baggy jeans.

You didn't mock me for my clothes,

In fact you thought they were cool,

You liked the same kind of music,

And never called me a fool.

I didn't love you for your looks,

I'm not as shallow as that.

I loved you for your personality,

Attitude, and the way you act.

You liked other people too,

But I didn't expect you'd love me,

I thought the signs were obvious

But I guess you didn't see...

How I stared after you with longing,

Always mentioned your name,

And when the circumstances changed,

Thought things would stay the same.

I didn't want you to change at all,

I love you the way you are,

People thought we were a couple,

And how I wish it went that far...
