I pass you in the halls

Trying not to look

As you walk by

But then,

A miracle!

We made eye contact

You saw me

And I saw you

Your eyes smiled

Your mouth did not

I couldn't blame you

It's not cool

Letting others know

That we were friends

Friends- though

Isn't even the word

More like

"Kids forced to spend

Time with each other

Due to family"

And so

Eventually

The time that I dreaded

Was now the moment

I waited for

For eventually,

I realized

I no longer hated you,

In fact

I think I fell

Into "like" with you.
