Wonder Boy



Wonder Boy

I remember the first time I smiled at you
And you smiling me back at me too

I saw you around the corridors
Didn’t think much of it before
Until I caught you looking at me and I thought maybe there is something more

I still find myself wondering about you

Wondering which path have you taken
And if there was something there you already have forsaken

You’re one of the few people I admire
Among few whom I wonder about

I guess til I see you again
I’d still be left here to wonder
I hope saying these things somehow matter

Take care for now
Not really sure if you had something to do with Ms. Luau

She hasn’t said anything
But maybe there are things I’m better off not knowing
