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? _
