i see you everyday
but close my mouth to hide what i want to say
to say i love you with all my heart
and i never want us to be apart
yet i know you love another
i see your glances in the direction of the other
your laughing smiles
and flirtatious styles
these things were meant for me
if only...

if only you knew the way i feel
maybe i could open my heart to reveal
the feelings i have for you
the things i see which i love about you
your beautiful hair your beautiful eyes
that lock my gaze, that mesmerise
distract me from my train of thought
but i look away for fear of being caught
at stealing a look at pure beauty
if only...


first poem....pls i welcome all advice on improvements on style and rhyming structure

Wouldn't change a thing you've captured the true essence of what you feel.
I love it

Great Job!
Who ever this is your talking
about they better look your way
there is a very special heart
if they just turn their head.
One thing you can't hide here is your heart.
     This guy just makes me laugh!
