I kinda wish

That she'd pick me

To be her first

Girl date-e



Some time ago

Around grade six

I realized my likes

Of both guys and chicks



I remember asking her

If I had such attractions

Would she deny me

Or return said actions



To my dismay

Not greatly at the time

I was framed guilty

Without committing the crime



It was sadly at that moment

I felt a small part

Inside of my cage

Lock away in my heart



Though she was my friend

And I best to her

I felt it was better

That my feelings defer



For the longest times

Those feelings weren't there

But somewhere backed

I knew of my care



Though since that day

When I was "rejected"

My feelings for her

Were never neglected



I was always there

Whenever she'd call

I was always waiting

To soften her fall



Whether it be family

Or even a guy

I always tried to be

A shoulder to cry



But lately I've felt

An increasing desire

Her feelings for me

I want to acquire



I could be so great

I would treat her so well

If only for a moment

Her heart for me fell



She recently spent

Over a night

And whilst we were talking

I was full of delight



Knowing of only

One location

Where she could sleep

Was my elation



And through that night

As we had slept

Her body on mine

Had unknowingly crept



She cuddled against me

Gently breathing low

I could not move but

Was happy doing so



For a moment I watched

Her beautiful face

Sleeping right next to me

Unknowing her place



A saddened thought

Came into my mind

How this moment with me

She'd not consciously find



And to my surprise

Earlier today

She shared with me

A hopeful array



I wanted to ask

I wanted to say

That I've wanted to date her

Since back in the day



But I stayed quiet

Changed the subject, in fact

And we both kept walking

Disregarding the act



Though given the chance

To show her a side

Of my affections

I would not hide



I'd take her hand

Walk up and say

"Kim, you have no idea

My wait for this day"



If such words should change

For a second her view

And for a while

We were two



I'd care for her

The best I could

My heart for her

Would be like wood



Forever a catalyst

To sustain a fire

I've wanted to start

Since 6th grade desire



But after her fun

Or mere satiation

And time with me

Is no longer fascination



If she so requested

That friends we remain

I'd lock up those feelings

And return to refrain



Taking those days

For however long

As my happy heart

To her would belong



To my best friend

Whom I've waited and waited

I hope to have the chance

To say that we've dated
