I was fine,
Then you came in.
You took over my mind,
And down went my chin.
~
Down in shyness,
For you made me blush.
At first I thought you were a mess,
Until you gave me that adrenaline rush.
~
I daydreamed, a lot.
For I was easily intrigued,
By all your mess and what not,
I had the urge to fix you, oh indeed!
~
Down went my chin,
But this time, with empathy.
You have slowly let me in
On your unspoken memory.
~
I stayed up till dawn
Planning my next surprise.
I yearned for your smile to be drawn,
Causing those crinkles next to your eyes.
~
Down went my gaze,
As I finally approached you,
Your face seemed amazed,
Yet not in the way I wanted it to.
~
"For me?" you asked in vain,
As I repeatedly assured you.
"Thank you," but it was so plain,
Not the one that I expected too!
~
I slowly started to walk away,
Seemed like I got them wrong vibes.
Two days and I was like,
"Hey!"I thought I hadn't run out of tries.
~
Down went my chin,
As I sat on that table for two,
For I had been waiting for him,
But he hadn't been waiting for me too.
~
One, two... three times now.
It was enough for me to comprehend,
That once again, I let my mind go blind,
Once again I had - to my expectations - end.
~
Down went my tears,
As I let it all sink in.
It wouldn't have survived years.
It wasn't even something to begin with!
~
I thought I'd stay strong,
But the pain was far too deep.
I've been hanging in there for so long,
And now it's time for me to breathe.
~
I won't keep them in no more,
For those tears might aid and mend
The heart he has mistakenly torn,
And the bond he has carelessly bent.
~
I wish our paths would cross again,
But I would not be the one initiating.
He would have taken his time by then,
But I would be so done waiting.
