I walked through the halls,

All crowded,

None bare,

When I catch a glimpse of you there,

I see familiar eyes,

Nonetheless I despise,

That you're never in my life,

I try to forget the pounding I so breaifly heard,

I thought it was absurd,

My heart tries to play games,

But it doesn't know my pain,

 

Watching you walk down the hall,

When I fear I won't see you at all,

I keep moving to my destination,

Although I have a breif hesitation,

My heart begins to thump,

Even though I can't see you,

I remember those times I watched you,

Your kind smile,

The cute way you laugh,

My chances with you, I begin to graph,

 

'Keep walking forward' I told my brain,

And nontheless, it obeyed,

But when I reach my car,

My memory starts to betray,

I see your face again in my mind,

Then hoping I could see you one more time,

I flush out the memory,

Although it was hard for me,

 

The next day,

The same hall,

It feels like you didn't notice me at all,

Talking to your friends,

trying to make amends,

I keep a straight face,

I move forwards,

When I stop, my friend gives me an embrace,

And notices somethings wrong,

I feel like fading away,

My heart  could decay,

The things I wish I could say pound in my brain,

 

Finally, on a day that's true,

I reach out to you,

We talk for a bit,

I was glad I never quit,

I said:

'You have no idea how fast my heart beats when I see you.

It aches to know that you don't pay attention to me.

But I know, you do have a life, and you don't have to look

at me.'

You smile,

Something that could stretch a mile,

And say to me:

'You never saw me staring?

Myself, hoping to see you again?

You never saw my attempts to talk to you?'

 

My heart fluttered,

And at first I stuttered,

But them filled with glee,

 

Now I know, 

He could be with me,
