instant chemistry,
instant spark.
new person, new topics, new feelings
yet somehow, it feels as if we’ve already met.
a familiarity in you that I see in me, too.
common interests, humour, and laughs,
the only two things that separate us
are gender and heart.
a newfound bond,
a connection I already see
shining strong and true.
you see me, and I see you
our real selves, transparent and clear,
as if we read each other fluently.
it hasn’t been long since actually knowing you,
yet it feels like I’ve known you my whole life.
our friendship still new, still beaming, hopefully true
but with misread signals and miscommunication,
each falling for someone,
but I thought you liked me.
you didn’t know I liked you.
feeling like an idiot
hurt and annoyed.
after feeling it all, I realised
my feelings were real, but untrue.
I like you a lot,
but not how I thought I did.
I thought I had a romantic crush on you,
but I have a crush on you as a person,
as a friend.
and I’m so glad we’ve met now
and get to live this life together,
finally having someone
who sees our real selves,
finally seeing something deeper
than the reflection in a mirror.
This is a poem about meeting someone new, who i connected with on a new level. This is about someone who gets every reference, knows every feeling and knows every song. Someone who finally justifys me, and makes me feel seen
