In front of you i smile,
like nothing is ever wrong,
i laugh and write you notes,
and pretend to get along,
i act like I'm having fun when i see you passing by,
i stare at you longingly,
when i spot you in the hall,
but when the day is over,
and i see you with her,
in the cafeteria,
on the table with her,
a fire burns inside of me,
i want to scream"you're mine"
but instead i walk out to my bus,
all the while my emotions i hide,
then while i am at home,
i think about the past,
a tear comes to the corner,
but i wipe it away fast,
i told you ALL my secrets,
i let you know my life,
the only one i trusted,
now all i have is strife,
unable to control it,
my emotions run free,
tears pour down my face,
your face is all i see,
time and time again,
i want to tell you how i feel,
but for my reputations sake,
only a quick glance is all i steal,
so as i sit here and write this poem,
i know you will never know,
how you really have my heart,
all the reasons are still unknown
