Steel Armor

My name is called and I look down.

Her radiant smile beams with unfathomable emotions.

She squeezes my hand as if expectant.

I lean in and give her a kiss, my heart unmoving yet hers shake her body.

I smile, clenching my other fist so that she doesn't see.

That there is no way for me to share the same feelings.

We have known each other for so little.

Yet.

When I am about to meet him, my heart beats expectantly.

I squeeze him in my arms as he runs to me.

There is no way I can be love with my best friend.

I don't want to kiss him.

I don't want to date him.

I just want these days to continue eternally.
