I Don't Have A Name for This Poem

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.
