A glance, a look-see
Unable to help stop the adoration
Briefly thinking, left wishing it was me
A glance at me, instant conviction.
Between a glance and delusion
And after the initial flight
Soft of heart, it's probably an illusion
But you'll be in my thoughts tonight.
I dream of one chance to say I like you,
a positive rendition to show you this fool.
Even as I know it's hopeless, I can dream too...
Maybe in the next incarnation, this one's just cruel.
You think I'm odd, most likely scary-strange at best,
Hell you're most likely sure I'm nuts
but you're too sweet to say the rest.
... The wish stings as the dream cuts.
You're soft spoken and gentle, sweet
as helpful and as kind
when it chances us to meet
... I find you haunting my mind.
A stupid crush, I know it.
Most likely pigs to fly than this
I thought I'd learn by now I'm unfit
Brief dream of your cheek to kiss
I'm sorry if I scare you
I know I shouldn't stare
But bittersweet admiration to
blame, I still look to see you there.
Nice poem
