Crush
February 14, 2009
I saw you for the first time
And my heart beat faster than the chime.
You looked so dazzling and fine.
I wished and dreamed you were mine.
I sat there in the room feeling all alone.
But when you walked in the sun truly shone.
I smiled wide,
But you walked past my side.
I turned to stare
Before this I was unaware
Tears began to swell
As I fought back a yell.
My heart is slowly breaking.
On the inside I am bruised and aching.
I realize these events seem like a rush,
But now I know why they call it a crush.
