Love, Your Secret Admirer.

_A whole world flashes through my eyes,_

_As soon as I see your bright smile,_

_A planet with just love, surprise,_

_But won’t be discovered for a while._


_Falling for you, my favorite pastime, _

_And melting in a stew of my mind,_

_I swoon from watching you just one time,_

_And blush red when your presence reminds._


_Standing behind as a silhouette, _

_My words too scared to be unveiled yet,_

_Ever since the moment we first met,_

_I knew your heart, I could never forget._


_Crumbled notes with scribbled ink, _

_Sweet words, truth in shaky print,_

_Filled margins with love that brinks,_

_With no signature, no hint._


_Every day, I hear you speak of me, _

_Of the admirer you wanna meet,_

_How pretty this ‘guy’ seems, how friendly,_

_Yet I’m the girl you’re eager to greet._


_Maybe you’d like to see our world too, _

_And my discreet heart’s attempts pull through,_

_My most desperate thoughts hope you do,_

_That you know me, you have a clue._

__

__

_But there’s a chance your smile will fall, _

_And I would fight the urge to bawl,_

_What if I have ruined it all?,_

_And out of our world, I will crawl?_

__

_So, I write this so you’re weary, _

_Of the girl— or guy — I might be,_

_Either way, I hope you’ll still love me._

__


_- love, your secret admirer._
