A Classmate Crush

I rush to class with books in hand
glancing at the place you stand
For I think I might've seen
someone like you in my dreams
with chocolate eyes
and hair like the midnight sky
Your smile creates a glow
Your words can cause no foe
I blush as I pass by
hoping you'd know the reason why
I push up my glasses and tie my ponytail
Feeling hidden in my own shell
You may not notice me
But I notice you
For you, girls push and shove
Maybe for your love
Maybe if you didn't look so good
I wouldn't have to fall for you too
And maybe if I wasn't so shy
Maybe, just maybe you would be my guy

The author's comments:
I hope that people could remember what it felt like to have your first crush in school. The silent persuing of a person. I was inspired by all the love stories I've read because I love romance!
