To Be Seen In Your Eyes

I see you walking down the hall
I stare after you, hoping you'll turn
And come running back to me
For this is what i yearn

I wish you felt for me
What i feel for you
Because I am in love with you
And don't know what to do

I see you walking down the hall
With that petite blonde girl on your arm
Tears form in my eyes
For you are causing my heart harm

I long for you to look at me the same
As you do to that girl
And everytime I see this
My stomach clenches, i want to hurl

I know i can't compete with her
But I wish you'd at least notice me
Standing here everyday watching you
Happy that you I am able to see

I long for your touch
Your loving embrace
Your soft kiss
My heart encased

But that won't happen, and I know it
So I'll continue to watch from the side lines
Hoping, wishing, praying for my chance
To be seen in your eyes

    This relates to me so much, it's almost scary lol
    I am going through the same thing. The guy I really have feelings for had feelings for me, but they're long gone. He and I get along so well, but I'm not with him. Oh well, heck...I'm only 14, so things can still change. Anyway, you have a beautiful write! I think that a lot of people can relate and that's important. You make your feelings so well known and it's so strong. You have a deep piece of poetry, I loved it!
    Good luck and thanks much for entering

    This really is a passionate piece. Iloved it so much that couldn't pick any single line but I think the last stanza is magnificent.

    I can totally relate to this poem as i have been in the situation you've been in. It's very difficult to have to watch them from the "sidelines" I really loved this poem very beautiful, but please put the option you chose in my contest. Keep writing you have a great talent. Great job. Emily
