Hello there Miss Stranger I'd like to know your name Of course, this might seem rather strange I'm afraid all we've had were passing smiles And slight conversation Friendly waves and sideways glances- from two seats away Please forgive me for staring You just caught my interest A shy girl taking classes out of her league And passing them as if it was simple elementary I just had to know more So I waved for the first time And you waved in return And thus, we were acquaintances
Hi there Miss Stranger All across the way I enjoy the smiles we pass everyday In class The hallway rush I wonder why I enjoy it so much We've rarely spoken small talk Much less what we believe in So why does a smile from you give me such a happy feeling? This isn't love I've made that mistake before Maybe you seem nice and I wish to know more Oh dear, this may seem a bit much I assure you I'm not after affection or lust Just a smile And your name If it's all the same.
Hey there Miss Stranger Wasn't it such a lovely day? It was the day I finally got the nerve to say That I'd like to be friends with you After days of finding the words and the courage I finally approached Defying every insecurity and doubt For talking to strangers can be rather difficult And even if you said no I would be proud of myself for trying To my pleasant surprise You were delighted to! It's always exciting to gain a new friend For adventures and memories beckon as soon as they are created It was a pity it was such short lived For not even days after We returned to our routine Of smiles and waves On an endless repeat How did this happen? Was it something I said? Without warning We slowly faded back Into the strange stage of strangers I guess I shouldn't complain Could've been a lot worse Though every possibility our "friendship" had Faded away right along with your desire to know me So it seemed
Oh, well I suppose I should've seen it coming
Take care Miss Stranger And thank you anyway I'll always be here to smile When we pass everyday
Wow, never thought I would see this poem again. Mostly because it's a mess. Some parts rhyme, some don't, and others don't seem to fit! Gah! Oh, well. Posting it, anyway. I wrote this last year when I was rather lonely, for I was going through a difficult time. The girl was kind, and though we never really became close (or friends, for that matter) I am still happy to help her in anyway I can. C'est la vie. Thank you for taking the time to read this, it means the sea to me. Have a wonderful day, wherever you are.
