I often wonder
if anyone has ever glanced at me
out of the corner of their eye
over and over again
because they didn't want to stare
but weren't able to look away

I wonder who, if anyone, has ever
caught their breath before
it even entered their lungs
because they thought they saw my curls
and was disappointed
because it was not me

I wonder if anyone's heart
has ever skipped a beat
because I smiled at them
or was driven insane
by my casual actions
and was dying to let me know
that for them,
everything was anything but casual
when it came to me

and I wonder if anyone
has ever sat in their room
with all the lights off
listening to love songs
and my name running through their head

I wonder
if anyone has ever
felt the way I do
about you
