Closer

You came into my life
Slowly,
A friend that I could talk to,
A person who would listen
To what I had to say.
We got closer,
Became good friends.
You would say something,
And I would laugh.
We got closer,
Became best friends.
I started looking into your eyes
And thinking about you all the time.
We got closer,
Became a couple.
I started holding your hand
And hugging you in the hallway,
Smiling,
As we got closer.
