a poem for my crush

saw you across the room today

didn't say a word

but something in the way

your eyes found mine

felt like being heard

i don't even know your name

but i've been thinking about your face

funny how a single look

can turn into a feeling

i can't erase

is it just me

or did you feel it too

that one second

that felt like something new

i'm not imagining things

at least i hope i'm not

cause you looked at me like

maybe you forgot

to look away

we've never talked

never been close

but you're the first thing

i think about the most

don't know your laugh

don't know your voice

but something in my chest

keeps making noise

is it just me

or did you feel it too

that one second

that felt like something new

i'm not imagining things

at least i hope i'm not

cause you looked at me like

maybe you forgot

to look away

maybe i'll never say it out loud

maybe this stays my secret in a crowd

but if you ever wonder

who keeps stealing glances

it's me

still waiting on our chances

just look again

that's all i need

just look again

and maybe i'll finally

say something
