Poem by Leyana

More Than Just a Friend


You are my friend
One I've known all my life
You were there in all my times of need
When I needed a shoulder to borrow
You were there when I got picked for the team
To celebrate and eat ice cream

But lately the line between friendship and romance is a blur
I've tried adjusting the lens
Trying to get it to focus
Needing to see the line
Needing to see where I stand

But I'm afraid I already know where I am
Way off in romance land
Cause every time you smile
The butterflies start acting up
When you put your arms around me
My heart starts to thump

I know you think of me as only a friend
I don't want to ruin our friendship
I don't want to cause that awkward moment
So I will try and hold back my feelings for you
Hoping they'll pass

My 2011 wishes

To be more than just another of your guy friends who talk to you now and then.
To more than just admire you from the periphery of your life.
To be part of it and you to be part of mine.

When I was a student, I didn't like Christmas for it meant holidays were ending and school was starting. Now that I'm becoming a teacher next year, it's all back to square one. How nostalgic!

If you are good, you will be assigned all the work.
If you are really good, you will get out of it.
"If God is watching us, the least we can do is be entertaining."

Lord, there are so many things that vie for my attention. Give me Your wisdom to do the things that matter for life on earth is short.
