Closer Poem by Jayson Klarian Cortez

Everyone has someone close it seems

That one person they think of by day

To the point they cannot sleep

An unbroken bond

One like no other

Romantic or platonic

Both are quite honest

I crave for a bond as deep as the rest

I yearn for that someone who knows me the best

Someone who chooses me first above all

The one who would catch me if I ever do fall

Everyone has someone, it seems day by day

I try to pursue but it feels like a game

A game I am losing in such pathetic ways

No matter how many people I see and meet

They will always have someone

They are closer with than me.
