Side-Eyed Grin
He took her side-eyed grin
and planted it upon a hill....
the perfect spot
for a magnificent tree
to spread its wings
like roots

I thought, You had a crush!
Remember? the first day when you saw me,
I felt you have a crush.
That was the biggest problem to be,
since I took it for a rush.
Our eyes used to meet,
and you pretended to be sweet.
I used to show you as a creep,
that was my way to prevent being a freak.
You used to take a cycle,
I used to take a walk.
Maybe you never felt,
but I tried to have a tal...

Hello, how are you today: upper,middle,lower— class.
front, and center.
I’d like to think if a kid were to get up and say I can’t stand this, then the teacher would get behind them in an orderly fashion.
side by side, classroom C-3 parts in the middle of the day, to make their way back to their seat,
show and tells of mommy and me– are always well received.

On Hire
Though your dough is plentiful
And you never leave me short
I cant stand this life no longer
Where my love is being bought
Crush me, dont bribe me
I admit I've done you wrong
Why dont you punish me,
Show me you can be strong?
Instead you ply me with goodies
Try like mad to keep me sweet
Yet you know I never loved you
You never swept me off my feet

Stare
I saw you
I saw you wait
I saw you stared
I saw you walked by
I saw you dropped your shoulders and sighed
I wish you could have seen me staring at you too.

Dreaming Like It's 2004
I had one of those dreams again, the ones where we were just friends. You had no idea you were my every heartbeat.
We were on a trip somewhere, back in high school or something. You had a crush on the foreign exchange student I was rooming with. I was barely tolerating her. You invited us to hang out though, and I couldn't deny any second spent near you. We stayed late in your room listening...

Wonderings
I liked the way he looked at me
Like I was the only thing he could see
or that was worth looking at.
I liked the smile he made for me
A tailored face, specifically
to tell me what he couldn't say.
I liked the things that went unsaid
The message in the nod, the tilt of his head,
the eye contact held too long.
I liked his arms, skin brushing skin
A s...

I want this to last forever
The greatest smile I have ever seen,
the most gorgeous voice I'll ever hear,
with stunning eyes that turn me to stone,
I feel like a child when I'm around you.
The little time that we spend together,
I wish it would last forever.
Talk about nonsense,
yet laugh at everything.
We create memories,
with only our fingertips,
never mind the spoken words that cannot be heard,
we make promi...

Light that brings me home
With a warmth inside I'm heading home.
Shadows fall as I walk into the dark,
slowly losing the sight of my goals.
Alone, I have killed the sun,
now even the moon fears me.
No one by my side,
getting ready to give up,
I stopped,
opened my eyes,
I saw a light that was running towards me.
Soon a relaxing laugh followed,
in my mind it was hallowed.
The light shone brighter and brighter,

Listen To Me..
Hey baby, listen to me;
I never thought you'd follow my advice
Though I'm sad, I don't regret,
Seeing the happiness in your eyes.
Hey baby, listen to me;
I know you know me too well,
I wear this façade just for you;
Though I know, I can never tell.
Hey baby, listen to me;
I changed myself just for you,
You know I care about you,
But she's attached to you, like glue.
Hey baby, lis...

Caught in the Spider’s Web While Cupid Shoots Arrows in My Head
You’ve gotta help me
Please
I know
I know
I know
There is something wrong with me.
It's an illness!
A disease!
But it's not,
It's foolish
And everyone
(excluding sociopaths)
Gets caught
In the messy web
Of the venomous spider
That is called
A crush.
God,
I have a crush.
I need help,
But his hair has these lovely curls,
He’s...
