You caught my eye

I was walking with my friends when I passed you by
Something about you just seemed to catch my eye
Our eyes locked on each other as I kept on walking
But I kept going and continued talking
Our eyes never left each other as I turned away
I never came over, I had nothing to say
You looked so lonley sitting there alone
I wish I had talked to you so my feelings could be known
But instead I continued to walk away
Because I couldn't think of not one thing to say
Now that I look back on our akward moment
There are plenty messages I know I could of sent
I could of asked how your day had been
or told you I had seen someone who could of been you twin
Even better-I could of said "I've been praying for you"
And I want you to know God's watching over you too
But intead I just kept walking on by
Never saying a word not even giving it a try
So next time I see you sitting there, I'll know what to say
I'll come over and say "hey, how was your day?"
I hope that you'll catch my eye again sometime
Because until then you'll continue to be on my mind

A nice poem.  It is a touchy issue for me though... I'm often passed by by people who wish to console me for what I seem to be thinking or what I believe.
I love being a loner though.  I used to dread being seen alone, now I actually like it.
So this guy might like to talk to you, might not.  Just be careful that you don't offend him with religious references.
Best of luck to you.

Nice poem here! I liked the descriptive little narration of what happened. A little story in this poem. I liked it.....good job!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

This is about my friend who has just started back school due to a six month hospitaliztion(sp?) period. I saw him sitting over by himself and I didn't say anything. So thats what the poem is about.

This was really sad. I hate regret. Can't change the past, just try and remake the future!

It sounded like a love poem but it soon grew into a poem of sincerity. Sometimes words are hard to divulge in awkward momments. You only get a few chances so try your best to comfort this person escpecially considering that they are in a state of abuse. Keep in touch!
