Crush
One girl’s creep is another girl’s crush,
Classroom romancing is such a joke,
He likes her but she likes another,
And so this is why the boy stays hush.
Love consistent as a wisp of smoke,
Hormones take hold and try to smother,
Until all are left with feelings that crush,
Seeing school love for the terrible joke,
Reminding him then why the boy stayed hush.
