The first time I heard his name

He caught my attention right away

Didn't expect I would feel this way

I want to see him every day

We don't spend much time together

But my free time is mostly spent on you

We don't talk much

But inside me, there is so much to say

We don't feel the same

But am I stupid to feel this way?

From nothing to more

I saw you again in that green

And you just looked so clean

December 12, 2019

Eyes met just like before

Was it me looking at you?

Was it you looking at me?

Or was it just a coincidence?

That I had to distance myself

To keep you out of my sight

And everything all right

I scanned the pages of my journal for the third time before finally closing it. In it were some of the poems that I wrote last year.

I inhaled before letting out a deep sigh and looked around. Just like a cat eyeing for prey, but I was not a hungry cat asking for a portion of food. I was a stray cat who had found her haven.

The hallway was empty; no students were loitering around. Great, no one was in the area to witness the stupidity that I was about to do.

I squinted through the classroom's window, to check if nobody was inside. And after I had confirmed that the coast was clear, I walked into the room.

This was my last and only chance.

Okay, self. You got this. One perfect move and it's done. I thought to myself, with fingers crossed that no one would appear in the room.
