From afar

She watched

The flutters

In her heart

Kicking alive

She acted oblivious

Showed no care

But

Craved to know

Touch

Hold

Love

He didn't help

Didn't notice

Didn't care

Passed without

A word

A look

None showed the other

She had a feeling

After hearing him favour her

Were they the same

In a way

In the same way?

Her crush evolved

Yet

Could never act on it

So she observed

And was content
