Is It Cheating?

By Dekika

Is it considered cheating,
if no one knows,
if you never touch,
but the love still grows?

Is it considered cheating,
if you laugh together,
if you enjoys each others company,
if you chat about the weather?

Is it considered cheating,
if you truly fall,
and you want to be with them,
if they start to call?

Is it considered cheating,
if you talk all night,
and get to know them?
is it really all right?

Is it truly cheating,
when you fall in love
with someone else,
a star from above?

Am I really cheating,
if he doesn't feel the same,
if I'm wasting my time,
if no one's to blame?

I'm only cheating myself,
if cheating is it,
because he doesn't love me back,
and the one who does feels it.
