Crush on a Gay Childhood Friend

Here's the thing:
I think he made most of that up.
But he probably didn't mean harm like she said,
'Cause he probably didn't mean anything,
And was making it up as he went along.
It was kind of self-serving, though.
But here's the other thing:
We might actually be closer in the long run because of
that silly boy making stuff up and kinda making me uncomfortable at the time.
And of course I understand things better now, and I don't feel the same way
But I'm looking forward to being closer in the long run.
