A crush can be embarrassing, if the feeling is unreturned.
Eventually we get passed it and file it under lessons learned.
To save your affection for the one who loves you;
to not be crushed by your crush.
And, to change your point of view;
to let your feelings evaporate, like morning dew.
It may be that dreams are empty and emotions disappointing.
Ushered into love by sadness, and humiliation.
To get through it you need faith and patience.
A sentient being can be hurt, but also recover.
It’s not so impossible to find another, pining away for someone is a waste of time,
your heart knows, it will find a counterpart, a reason in rhyme.
A brush with the sublime, but first you have to let go.
Sometimes, your emotions can get it wrong,
blinded by a beautiful face, it’s hard to be strong.
A crush can be demeaning, but it’s only human.
We reach out toward love like a plant stretches up, towards the sun.
We want to share our lives, but love can be blind.
One of the perils of existence, is to find out if love is real,
and, love is tested by time.
What once seemed perfect, can lose its shine.
If your crush is unrequited, you might feel gaslighted.
How could the object of your affections not see that it was meant to be?
No matter how you feel, you have to respect others free will.
Desperation can lead us to sabotage and even kill.
A crush is just a part of life that we all go through,
Trying to pair bond, and abscond with a little romance,
Be prepared in advance for when love does come to us.
