I’ve noticed for a while
You give me shy smiles
When I glance you look away
When I talk to you you don’t
seem to know what to say
You confide in me, you trust me
You wait for my replies hopefully
Your gaze is different from my friends’
You don’t want to be just friends
You don’t think I know
You’re obvious, you don’t think it shows
It kept going and I just waited
Maybe my assumption was wrong?
One day you came to me
Nervous and awkward but I waited
Words shot out rapidly
If they were bullets there’d be
nothing left of me
But you said what I expected
You confessed, I rejected.
You said you wished to be with me
Oh, but if only it came true.
