What are we?
Because everytime I try to look at you,
My heart rate spikes up,
And my emotions run haywire.
Yet when I look at you,
I feel lonely without you,
I feel trapped and uncertain,
Is it possible?
To feel this way,
All of a sudden?

Everytime we talk,
I feel drained,
But the happiness which hides,
Can’t be ignored,
Everytime you ignore my messages,
And keep me blocked,
I feel hurt, yet determined.
Everytime I hear your voice,
My eyes well up with tears,
What is it that I feel?
Some unnamed emotion?
Which only you can cause?

I wanna know what are we,
Together for years,
Yet we can’t call each other friends,
It’s been years,
Yet stuck to being classmates,
We don’t talk, or wave a hello,
We don’t chat, sitting side by side,
It’s been years we share the class,
Surely it’s not just luck, right?

What are we?
If not even friends,
Because it’s been years,
And I am desperate for answers.
