But can't speak to him.
You have meaningful conversations,
Only through a screen
Real interactions feel odd
They leave you feeling down,
But anything to see his smile,
Even to be left with a frown
He's giving you signs,
Hard to ignore,
Maybe it´s but kindness,
Why assume more?
But no, he's so nice,
To seemingly only you.
Let yourself believe his feelings are true.
But you don't.
You leave yourself confused,
You're giddy, upset, and confused.
Yet you can't ask for his input.
How does he really feel?
You've confessed your Love.
He didn't confirm or deny reciprocation.
It leaves you with new fascination.
How does he feel?
Every interaction is friendly,
Makes you feel loved,
But as soon as he leaves,
The warm feeling dissolves.
The boy leaves you with a Lovestruck smile,
Which will fade in a while.
You watch as his rounded hips,
Soft lips go
Your feelings for him,
Unmistakably show.
Every exchange keeps you unhinged,
Head over heels,
Drawing you in.
Even if its brief,
It sure feels right
In Love with a boy.
In Love at first sight
