For L

You may not be of height,

But you had me at first sight

We may not see each other everyday

And that's because you go to your classroom, and there you stay

You party with your dogs

I party with blankets

I may not have to admit it,

But I have a thing for guys with glasses

I look for you at recess, lunch, and even at dismissal

Only to realize that I have eaten two loaves of pandesal*

I do forget that you have swimming practices to attend

Which leads me to my silent lament

At eight pm, I told you I liked you

Just a plain text message, hoping it would mean something to you

But guess what

You said you liked yourself too

At ten pm everything changed,

You said you like me, and it's cool that we have the same grade

The great thing was, it was not awkward

No matter how we seem to be apart

Dear cheese, I hope you'd never change

I know it sounds corny and I think it's strange

For you have shown me how deep affection can go,

And with your awesomeness, you could melt a blue marshmallow
