Love Poem: Maybe one day

Maybe one day

Maybe one day
You’ll like me.
One day you’ll
Realize you miss me
In a way you never did before.
You’ll convince yourself
Its because we’re friends
And it’s just been a while
Since we’ve been in each other’s company.
But then we’ll meet up
And your heart will do the thing.
You don’t know if it’s skipped a beat
Or stopped altogether
But you know its nerves
When you’re looking at me.
You’ll play it off cool,
A warm greeting
And a hug you never want to end.
You missed my touch
And now you’re yearning for more
As we pull apart.
You’ll wonder about me
In a way friends usually don’t.
And you’ll come to realize
That you’re out of the friendship zone.
Your feelings for me
Are beyond that now.
Maybe one day you’ll like me.

But I won’t hold out hope.
I can’t wait forever
And I can’t expect 
That one day you will.
