Puisi: "Better Left Unsaid" by Aris Balu

Can we talk for a second?

Don't worry, it won't be long

Well, you see, we've known each other for some time now

And I think something had grown inside me, 

I'm certain of what I've always known

I like you, there, I said it

I know we've been good friends, but let's be more

The first time I laid my eyes on you,

It was like an eruption

No, I don't mean it like that, but, you know,

This feeling is like a thousand explosions, wait, that's not right either

Look, the point is, I love you, and I can't hide it anymore

So, what do you say?

Oh,

Well, I understand,

It was stupid anyway,

So, are we still friends? Great,

then after school, do you still wanna grab something at the cafe?

Oh, you got other plans?

Alright, some other time then

What about a movie tomorrow?

Ah yes, you have band practice,

No, it's okay

Oh, you have to go? Alright,

See ya...
