His face is all I can think of,
The image that brings me the flutter of love,
Is cruelly burned into my mind.
Only once we have met,
How thick can I get,
To open my heart to a boy so unkind.
We will never talk, I admit,
But I'll never forget his quick wit,
Though I know I should leave thoughts of him behind.
He is a friend of an unknown classmate,
We will never be close enough to each other to date,
My feelings have gotten me in such a bind.
I've tried to speak to him once and it made me weak,
Because he thought I was too young and shy to be what he'd seek,
I'd never like him again if I could only rewind.
But thanks to this poem I was able to accept the days I had pined.
