A Different Kind of Love



I love you even
Though you’re not mine,
I love you
With a love
That’s different
Than love,
I don’t love you
Like I love someone else,
But I still
Love you
And I want to make
You feel happy,
But it’s okay
If someone
Else makes
You feel
Happy.
I just want
To see you
Feel happy,
And I just
Want to see you
Smile again.

About this poem

This is about an old friend whom I loved like a brother. I never had a crush on him, but he was one of my best friends and he was like a brother to me. We're not that close now, because he switched schools a long time ago because he was constantly getting bullied. I still see him from time to time though.
