i can't love you (even though i do)

when we met, it clicked. we clicked. we had so many things in common. i wasn't even attracted to you when i met you, but when you looked at me, i felt butterflies in my stomach.
we would talk and you would listen (and remember). you would ask about my day, my work, my school. i felt wanted. i felt loved.
i was even considering asking you out to the dance and i was just building the courage, but then the day came that you said, "yeah, my fiance's sister is in town..."
i was mad that you didn't even tell me that you had a fiance and you told me through her sister.

so i kept away from you. classes ended and i tried to forget about you. but then classes started again and i saw you everyday, talked to you everyday. remember october? when we both touched each other for the first time. i didn't care that you had a fiance; i just wanted you.

but then october ended and i snapped to my senses. you're practically married. and i started to make up excuses why i couldn't see you, i would cut our conversations short claiming that i had something else to do. i could see the hurt in your eyes; i knew i was hurting you. but you made the choice to be engaged.

so now, i'll keep my distance. i'll stay away, still loving you.
