The Perfect Crime

A piece about the trials of having a crush and being in love.

A shy look and an awkward hello

to a man I barely know

The laughs and smiles of every meeting

I swear that isn't my heart beating

You stole my heart within a single glance

These butterflies in me continue to dance

A red letter sealed with a heart

This waiting is ripping me apart

It seems I stole your heart as well

Still, I fear a painful farewell

As we whisper in Salem throughout the night

I think everything will be alright
