Sideways glances

Eye-contact lasts a second to long

Nervously looking anywhere else

Did he see that?

Did he feel it too?

Playing it cool

Just two friends hanging out

Nothing more; Nothing less

Does she look at me like I look at her?

Does she feel this longing too?

Getting hard to hide it

This wanting deep inside

It fills my dreams with bitter sighs

Can he see my turmoil?

Can he tell I want more?

Going through the motions as if nothing has changed

Pretending this waiting doesn’t bring pain

So desperate for a sign but scared to make a move

Should I risk it?

Is our friendship worth this?

Will I ever look at her the same again?
