He doesn't know

Every day she walks by him
but how could he know?
Every day when he is near, a warm
feeling creeps through her body,
but how could he feel that?
Every day she makes up a conversation
with him, telling him how much she loves him,
but how could he hear?
Every day she looks into his beautiful eyes
and sees everything,
and every day he looks into her eyes
and sees right through her.

She is tortured by this, and yet,
every day she writes:
I LOVE R.C on her hand,
right below her thumb,
thinking almost that if she writes it enough,
something will happen.
Maybe something, like he will talk to her,
tell her that he loves her too.
But that wont happen.
He can't see the
I LOVE R.C on her left hand,
right below her thumb,
where she can always see it.

Maybe someday she will wake up.
Wake up from this dream-during-life
and see the reality of it all.
But she can't do that.

She can't let him go......
