This is a poem I wrote about how I feel around my crush.
From afar,
I see your eyes give me a light smile.
A wind rushes and takes away the unheard words before I open my mouth.
This tends to happen to me, when I am near you,
This sensation.
These waves wash over me,
And I become blank.
What is this feeling?
When I look into your eyes,
I lose all senses,
I am barely aware of the light trance I am falling into.
With strong force, I realize you are making me fall into this whirl of time,
Where I can only see your face.
I`m starting to have a nagging feeling,
This hint of doubt…
This urging sensation to do something about it…
This thought in my mind…
This inner-confession…
Is this what it feels like to be in love?
Are you the cause of this newfound emotion?
I can`t decide,
If I should invite this intense feeling,
But then, how could I ignore such a strong light?
When you say hello,
Something sparks in my mind.
I wish you could understand.
Every day,
I start to ask myself…
Should I reveal this secret?
How does he view me?
A fragile butterfly, falling off a branch?
Gliding under the moonlight?
An insecure whisper?
I just wish I could understand..
The workings of the mind, if just a bit more.
How should I know
If I am out of grasp,
Or so very close?
I see you once again,
Your short greeting,
Your light smile.
What should I do?
This hint of doubt…
This nagging feeling…
This will haunt me forever.
And yet, I feel a smile creep up to my lips.
Sometimes, I`ll feel a burst of courage…
I greet you as well…what else could I do?
I don`t fully understand this feeling.
I will keep watching you…
Maybe one day
We can both understand?
