Crush
He sits there reading
Across the way
He glances up
I don’t know what to say
When he realizes he has my attention
He smiles like a school boy
With only one thought
I don’t know what he is thinking
That is hard to say
But I know I am thinking
That maybe someday
I will get enough courage
To just say hi
Instead of ignoring my feelings
And walking on by
He finally gets up from his chair
My heart begins to race
My stomach is in knots
He is getting closer
Now he’s right there
He puts his magazine up on the shelf
Obviously not noticing me
Just sitting there
He walks back to his chair
Then the bell begins to ring
It is time to leave
Who knows what tomorrow will bring
But I will still be wondering.
