It's winter, it's time

For winter break

The time of year

You can finally sleep in late

Will I not see

His handsome face

One more time

Before the great home race?

Nearing the end

Of school that day,

I neglect my duties

To try to say

What I've been meaning to

Since the first time

I saw him

Now, was that such a crime?

Alas, though I wished he'd say yes to her

My friend, who asked if he fancied anyone,

He said he liked girls, but only as friends

She told me he said so, and 'twas no fun

So, all day, I sulked and hoped

He was just too embarrassed

To admit he liked me

But I didn't want him to feel harassed

Finally, at the end of the day,

I rushed outside to see him

Boarding his bus two seconds earlier

Then I would have been able to meet him

My heart was shattered in pieces

I felt heartbroken again

I walked on to my bus

And watched the window in pain

Hoping to see him one last time

Before we were split apart,

I saw him give me that adorable smirk

The one that melted my heart

'Twas then I knew

I'd not be crying

The whole winter break

For his heart was with mine.
