Still just childhood friends, even today.
About
The walk home after school.
Two shadows stretch out, melting into the sunset.
I'm surely the only one who realized I've fallen in love. By convincing myself of that, I've managed to protect this distance.
I feel like if I put it into words, I won't be able to walk beside you anymore. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
"Was the math assignment due tomorrow?"
⠀
Hiding my true feelings behind our usual conversation, I match my pace to yours.
More precious than anyone, The person I love most. ⠀ ⠀
And yet, still,
Just childhood friends.
