I saw you firstI was waiting on the platform
You were alighting from the train
Our eyes met
My heart froze
It was a daily occurrence from then on
I purposely stay on the same platform
Just to catch a glimpse of you
And a glimpse of you I did catch
My heart does a skip
Every time my gaze behold yours
I wonder if you feel the same
Oblivious of the multitude of people around us
I could feel the warm fuzzy feeling coursing through my body
My courage fails me
But I long for you to say hi
Wondering if you notice me at all
Wondering if you feel what I feel
Today I got my chance
Suddenly all was gone
There was just me and you
Within inches of each other
My heart jumped in joy
I opened my mouth
But nothing came out
All I felt was the lump in my throat
The music on my iPod had suddenly stopped
Then I saw your lips move
Did he say hello?
My innocent brown eyes looked at you
Inquiring and willing you to say something
Nothing came
You passed me by
My shoulders slumped in dejection
I looked back at you
With eyes welled in tears
Our eyes locked again
I thought I saw your lips coil in a smile
And a faint sparkle in your eyes
Or did I not?
Guys I wrote this a while ago for a bloke that used to make my heart flutter at the train station but whom I never had the courage to walk up to. My normal self would have walked up to him to have a chat, but at 8 o'clock in the morning while everyone is trying to find their way to work, that is hardly an ideal time to exchange chit chat with a stranger who may even knock you back. Has anybody ever found themselves in this perplexing situation? How did you deal with?
