just a poem

1. DISTANCE
Jessica C. Largado
Whenever I see you smile
Seems like I’m walking in the aisle
In my stomach, there’re butterflies
Darkness is lost, I can see light.
When I see you unexpectedly,
You turn my knees into jelly
And I couldn’t walk properly
So I need someone to hold me.
Whenever you talk to me
Or when they try to tease me,
My face turns red, do you see?
You have that effect on me.
Whenever I hear your name,
I stop with what I’m doing,
Listen to what they are saying
Although I know it’s a bad thing.

2. When they say good things about you,
I just smile, feel proud of you
Wonder if I can be like you
Cause I really idolize you.
But whenever they say bad things,
I throw an angry look at them
Cause you don’t deserve backbitings
You are great, that’s what I’m saying.
Do you know what I really feel?
Whenever you are very near
My heart really does beat faster
And calming it becomes harder.
When I feel some kind of pain
Or when I feel like cryin’,
I just have to imagine
your face that is smilin’.

3. I remember that moment you laugh
It’s like music, I want to hear much
And believe me, it was just enough
to forget my problems and be tough.
I know I’ve to forget this feeling
Because I am not to your liking
But please just remember this one thing
In my heart, you’ll always be living.
