Crushed

This boy I liked
Went to my school.
And I tried my hardest
To keep my cool.

But each time he walked past
I felt my heart flutter.
Each time he caught my eye
My heart melted like butter.

He started winking at me
Every once in a while.
My knees went to jelly
And then came the smiles...

His smile was God-given
I felt my cheeks flush bright red
And I often wondered
What was going through his head

He held my hand once.
Just grabbed it, out of the blue
I felt a foolish grin arise
I didn't know what to do.

Then my sister came to me one day
What she said it broke my heart.
"He asked me out, but I said no...
"I didn't want to pull you apart."

I felt sick and stupid
But the damage was done.
He didn't talk to me again
But even that can't spoil my fun.

I've got a new guy, now.
He's the nicest guy I've known
He's always by my side
And I never feel alone.
