From a Distance

By: Angela Kern

When you walk past me & smile
my heart melts
& my breathing quickens.

When I see you at your locker
I want to run up to you
& kiss your sweet lips.

When we talk
I feel like I could tell you
anything except one thing...
I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU!!

I've loved you since
I first caught a glimpse of you
walking down the hall
to your next class.

I love the way you walk
the way you say my name
& the way you can make me laugh.

I love your sweet smile
& your obnoxious pranks.

I love it when you look at me
& you flash a million dollar smile,
my heart crumbles
when you flirt with other girls.

Alone I sit & wonder what it would be like
to kiss your sweet lips
to feel the warmth of your embrace
& to feel the sweet warmth
of your whispered breath on my ear
when you tell me you love me, too!

Then I wake up & hold onto the dream
because I know what tomorrow won't bring.
