I may not know poetry but I know how to express myself through writing.

What I feel for you right now is confusing. I see you and smile but then I ask myself, “Do I really love him or am I just obsessed with him?”

Sometimes I just wonder too much.

Between like, love, and obsession there is a big difference.

Like is for a while and it’s easy to get over with.

Love is forever and beyond death.

Obsession is just thinking that you either think you like them or love them.

For what I know of you can never feel all three at once.

If someone did ever experience all three I’m pretty sure that would hurt them a lot.

I don’t know exactly what I feel for you right know, but I’ve experienced all throughout almost nine years.

In other words I started having little/small crushes on my class mates since about first grade.

It’s all painful, but I guess that’s just part of living and being human.

Even though I’ve gone through lots of emotional pains I still haven’t learned enough.

I’m surprised that I still live because all this experiences that I lived are unknown to my family.

I have never had family support. I’ve cried and they don’t have a clue why.
