Crush - A Poem By Abanna Cheshire

Keeping you from seeing my eyes,
Thankful you can't hear my heart.
As i have quickly come to realize
I've been hit by cupid's dart.

I'm standing right in front of you
Waiting for you to see me
Given the chance we could be true
Lovers for our eternity.

Glances stolen across the room.
Can anyone else see me?
Hoping to feel your touch soon....
But waiting, and so it must be.

I know this is all one sided
Hope keeps me watching for signs
That in your heart I've abided
And you aren't totally blind.

So for now I close my eyes
Breathe deep and make a wish
That tomorrow I'll be by your side
Savoring the ecstasy of your kiss.
