Crush

Know this as an immutable truth of the universe: Every American boy had a crush on Tinker Bell.

I have a new crush every week. This week his name is not important. His missing phone call is.

This is for all the headless acrobats,
Faces crushes in the circus dust.
All in the name of Gravity
And the price of admission

Beautiful loser, warm hearts have left you down
Beautiful loser, warm hearts have left you...
'cause you're beautiful

I think of mankind in quotation marks
ever since I took a drink from you.

Jeff Buckley, lyrics taken from Moodswing Whiskey.

Only one vowel difference to »crash«, but the effect is almost certainly the same.

Everyone's had a crush on someone, and I can see why it's called a 'crush'. To look at her is to crush one's hopes like ripened, bursting fruit; to smell her hair and know she uses strawberry shampoo crushes the heart like a new pack of cigarettes; to talk to her and keep it against all the dictates of will and urge to trivialities crushes the spirit like that gentleman in Salem, Massachusetts, during the witch trials, who, after many stones were piled atop him, was asked a last time to confess; ribs and organs surely grinding to powder and paste, breath only leading over steep cliffs of broken glass to next breath, he wheezed: 'More weight'.

For, indeed, any who have loved so desperately and completely, deep in their broken hearts, despite all the agony of unrequited desire, must agree: 'More weight'.

i still have one on someone who dropped me,
and i can not seem to stop the imaginings that that they will want to see me again. its been nine months!
