Silly me for being so excited

To even think of you

Silly me of waiting

To talk to you

Silly me of fantasizing

Day in and day out

Of how it would be

If there was a you and me

Silly me of considering

That there'd be a chance

Of finding that charming

That I admired in my bookish heroes

Silly me of thinking

That you could be my charming

But for a moment, you were

And you still are somehow

But I believe in fairy tales

And things not meant to be

So silly you and silly me

To even feel something beautiful

And letting it all go

For the sake of meant-to-be's

Silly us for treading cold waters

For hoping in doomed dreams

Silly me of wondering

If you regret all this

If you still think of me sometimes

Silly me not being able to move on

When you clearly look like you have

Silly us

Silly me
