She watched and watched
Until she could no longer bear
That beautiful pale girl
With the silky smooth hair
The watcher's secret was unknown
But she loved her from afar
She listened to the other girl's voice
Melodious like a guitar
She never went up and spoke to her
Because she did not want to know
Whether or not this beautiful girl
Reciprocated emotions from the watcher's soul
Now this very beautiful girl
Grew more radiant each day
And the girl looked at her
As her hope faded away
And one day the girl gave up
Thought that she had no chance
Because in the society they lived in
Girls coudln't have a romance
And now the watcher regrets
Keeping her secret love hidden
She feels that she will never love again
Because her kind of love is forbidden.

COMMENT because i dont write this for my health!!!
Well, this was supposed to be an entry for Celticjedi's "choose your title" contest. For over a month Ive been having a really bad case of writer's block but today that ended when I cut class and went to lunch. There I saw an amazingly beautiful girl who is new to my school. I couldnt stop staring at her because she was just so pretty so somehow she inspired me to write this poem. Ive always hoped that I would get the opportunity to speak to her, maybe I will. But yeah, you can thank that girl for inspiring me.
And there's nothing wrong with love between two females. In fact, I think it's something beautiful. I was first thinking about changing it to the watcher being a guy secretly loving a girl, but fuck that I stayed true to myself and kept everything from a girl to girl romance.

Aw Mishi, you're a genius! I love this poem to death! We really do have too much in common, because I've been there too! Have the same regrets as well...grrr. No, if you had changed it to a guy loving a girl it would be obvious it wasn't true...because it doesn't contain the feeling this one does! I'm sorry for what happened Mishi. But hey, next time will be different.
Love you, keep it up!

Very nice
I loved this poem, it reflected almost the love I have for this new person at my school. But then again, this love is forbidden.
