HELLO, CRUSH

There she was, I stare at her beautiful face with that childish smile. I realized that her excessive confidence was irritating, yet her dreamy eyes and sweet voice makes any space glow.

I tremble to the sound of her voice. My heart beats like crazy when I see her, so much that I am afraid she might hear it. I can't understand why I feel such a strong and achy feeling in my stomach. I can't understand why the waves of emotions are storming in my body.

I thought to myself, if I could have her for only one-night by my side, holding her ... if only. My desire to feel her perfect and subtle caressing gives me pleasure. I dream of her hands taking me to a world of sweet passion. I think of her lips against mine and playing with her hair and my fingers running down her back and face. I want my arms wrapped around her as I dream of pressing my head against her chest.

My voice mutes whenever she speaks. I can feel my throat getting dry and my lips barely make an attempt to show a smile. I am thinking about the way she moves, the way she smells, the way she makes me feel.

Afraid of rejection, I continue to watch at a safe distance, letting life go on ... year after year. My heart keeps that a secret, I will retain hope and never let go of the dream of an unrequited crush.
