I DIDN'T WANT TO LIKE YOU

I didn't plan to like you.
I didn't want to like you.
I didn't want to be a cliché:
smart guy likes a smart girl.
In fact, when we first met,
I even disliked you, a little.
But the more time we spent together,
the more you grew on me.
Each time, we sat closer and closer,
until one day, when I sat next to you,
I felt warm inside.

I didn't want to like you.
I don't need to like you.
It's not useful to like you.
Or is it?
