Even though I watch you from afar you’re all I see,

I envision you in my mind alongside me.

Not a day goes by where you do not cross my mind,

Yet my feelings remain hidden, impossible to find.

I search for you in every crowd, knowing one day you’ll be mine.

My friends call me clueless and crazy at times,

Because I still talk about you, even through rhymes.
One day you will notice my stare,

But rejection I simply can not bear.

Until then, I will still see you as my perfect pair.
