Work Text:

You asked, “What does she think of me?” to them,

But I wished you would have asked me instead.

For I am “she” and know where those thoughts stem,

So now I will share what I would have said:

In my eyes you soar like a meteor,

Ambitiously free and unstoppable,

Combined with your confident demeanor.

To not admire you? Impossible!

But you and I do not see eye to eye.

For freaks do not deserve such praise, you say.

And claim what I said is one silly lie,

To let the compliments be brushed away.

To you I’ll always tell this more and more,

But one day I wish these words could be yours.
