All it took was a smile,
You had me at hello.
Each time I see you,
Every day at lunch,
Just confirms my feelings.
I would tell you,
But would you love me back?
Would things between us become awkward,
Would you become distant?
Things would never be the same.
But every time I see you,
I can't help but smile.
My gut wrenches and squirms
And a weight falls on my chest
Every time you're near.
Now I see why they call it heart ache.
And all it took was a smile.
Author notes
#170, All it took was a smile. No, I am not giving names or owning up to anything. If you ask me about it personally, I'll probably ignore you or change the subject. I dunno, having a crush is kind of embarrassing to me, I guess.

Aww, this is so cute. Though it's weird to me that you're now old enough to have crushes.
Poetically, I like how you use the title in the poem. Yay, you wrote poetry! See, it's not so hard!
