Thank God for My Crush
September 4,2017 my life was changed
I met someone special that the feeling I had for everybody else was estranged
I was walking in the lecture room and I saw her in the corner
books and pencils in front of her on the desk and in her right hand was a bottle of water
She looked so gorgeous I had to know what her voice sounded like
lyrics upon lyrics rushed through my mind so yes it was my time to strike
did I mention it was the first day of class?
I got so nervous I asked for notes only to look like an ass
what the hell did I say? I didn’t even tell her bye, I just scattered
I wasn't the type of guy to ask for notes or read notes for that matter
so there I was at home for a week practicing how I was going to introduce myself again
and what I came up with was “Hey beautiful, you are looking so bright that you are my sunshine even when it rains
next Monday morning September 11, I walked boldly to her ready to spit my line and the only thing came out of my mouth was “hi”.
I tried to move my lips so words could come out but I froze then I heard her saying “bye”
What the hell was wrong with me I asked myself
did I really need to look for “how to talk girls” on my bookshelf?
I preached sermons at my church, gave speeches at my school
and I could not say a sentence to my crush without looking like a fool
so again on September 12, I was walking to her once more
this time it was after class, she saw me coming towards her and she dashed through the door
so I gave up, maybe she isn't for me
and if she was then as Bebe Rexha said If it's meant to be, it'll be, it'll be
Baby, just let it be.
Now this where things turned for the ideal
And because of this miracle I know that God is real
September 24 at church I prayed a short prayer
the feeling of love I had inside was gashing up like fire
I know I’ve lusted and I'm truly sorry
but if you give me this one thing I will never ask you for anything again and it was to give me her to marry
I don't want to be like Solomon with 700 wives and 300 concubines
I just want 1 and please to make her mine
Amen.
September 25 during class she came to me asking for the notes she missed on Friday.
I quickly turned the pages gave it to her so she could take pics. That was literally my best ever Monday.
She said thanks I said you’re welcome
we got a conversation going and I no longer felt like I came from the rectum
October 12 was our first date, October 15 was our first but it was on the jaw
Who cares?, it still counts. I don’t recall there being any kissing law.
We became an official couple two weeks later
and even up to this day I thank God for granting me this favour.
I could mention more important dates but this poem wouldn't end
Because our love grows stronger with each day we spend
This is real life but it seems like I’m living a fairy-tale
our love for each other keeps growing and never gets frail.
Now all I see is us living happily ever after
with joy, kisses, passion and laughter
