I sat on a park bench,
Five meters away from you;
I stared at you
Several times but you never knew;
You looked my way,
And my heart almost went astray;
Then you stood up, gaped, speechless,
My eyes wandered around
as my emotions became a mess;
As the girl next to me
walked down the park alley,
I realized your gaze
was fixed on her earnestly;
My mind went blank,
heart clenched with despair,
I was no more
than a girl sitting on a bench chair.

Hi guys! :D I'm really glad I became part of this poetry community. This is not the first poem I wrote in my 19 years of existence, but I only got interested in composing poems just recently (yesterday to be exact xD) after reading my friend's work of art. I will be really glad to hear your comments, opinions, and suggestions regarding this poem of mine, especially since I'm new to this field of art. Thank you everyone!! :D
