Have you ever been crushed by a crush?
Felt that their weight was just a tad too much?
When they walk into a room---thump, thump,
It accelerates as my esteem dumps.
Too afraid to speak,
For fear that they'd leave.
Stitched my mouth with wire,
Much to my own ire.
She looks at me,
I barely register,
That she's speaking,
And I've ignored her.
I say something certainly awkward,
And the conversation ends.
Afterward, I wonder,
Am I even her friend?
Have you ever been crushed by a crush?
Felt infatuation tugging too much?
Brain circling with things to say,
Not that I could speak to her; there's just no way.
Her gravity would rip me apart,
Any possibility of rejection would break my heart,
And it's barely holding on.
I guess, I'll wait till she's gone...
