Wildfire

*Please read this. I know it might not rhythm as good as what others can do, but it's my favorite poem that I've written. Plz leave comments, and I'll return the favor. Thanks!*

The love I have for you burns inside me like a wildfire.
No matter what words are muttered, it can't die down.
People stare and talk, sometimes point. It hurts, but I try not to show it. I try not to cry at home, come night fall, I'm in bed crying myself to sleep.
I miss seeing you smile, I miss hearing you talk. Whenever I see you, I stand there, not knowing what to do. Almost as if I'm retarded.
You don't know the pain I go through, to keep my dirty secrets clean. I don't want you to see all the secrets I keep from you.
I think about you day and night. I see you in my dreams, every turn I take I see your face, staring at me, looking into my soul, as if searching for my secrets.
The thoughts that go through my head, I can't shut it out!
I try to drown the thoughts out with music, but that that only makes it worse.
I hide in the corner, listening to music and writing poems with you on my mind constantly.
I try to get you off my mind, but how can i forget the only thing on my mind?I think of fantasies I know will never happen. I pray and hope that you'll notice me, or at least manage a hello. I sit and stare, talking with my friends, sneaking glances, hoping my eyes meet yours. It hardly happens, but when it does, it's hard to look away.
The sounds I hear around me, remind me of you.
I can't escape the thought that somewhere, maybe your thinking of me too.
I sit and wonder, what your doing at this very moment. I stare into space, trying to think of my future will be like. Questions fly through my head! Will I still know you? Will I marry you? Will we still talk to each other? So many questions, it's too many to count.
I think of what I could say to you. When I get the chance to say it, I stand there and stare. I get so lost in your eyes, I can't look away.
Everyday of my life, I play the piano and wonder what it would be like if I never knew you. Would I be the same I am now? Or would i be some-sort of player, going around cheating on guys, and telling lies to my friend and my family?
I've always wondered what it would be like to grow up wishing on a star. To get everything I've always dreamed of having.
The very first thing I would wish for would be for you. I would wish for more words to say to you. That way our conversations could never stop.
At night when I'm outside laying on the grass looking at the stars, I wonder if your looking and wishing on the same star I am.
Each and every night, I wish for the exact same thing. 'I wish he will notice me, or at least manage a hello.' From what I can tell, you haven't noticed me at all. Not even a hello.
I fell like I'm sleep-walking through my life. It passes right by me. I never know what's going on and half of the time I never know what I'm doing!

    Thanks! it's not quite done yet though. the only reason why i started writing this poem was because there's this one guy that i'm like in love with, then it just sort of mixed with lots of other things that i've been through this year. and yeah. i still need to add all of the other things that i added just a couple of days ago.
