So, I've been watching you, Kim. From across this courtyard, I can see the highlights in your golden hair and the chocolate in your eyes. I can see the blush on your cheeks as you laugh with your friends and the joy in your voice.
I've been watching you, Kim, and I'm hoping you'll notice. I'm hoping you'll be curious and want to know why. I'm hoping you'll ask me and that I'll be honest with you. Maybe I'll tell you about the things I've noticed: your hair, your eyes, your smile and joy. I'll tell you about how I want to be the reason you smile everyday. I'll tell you about how much it bothers me to see other guys tripping over you for your attention. How the very mention of your name makes my heart beat faster than any healthy person can live with. How hard it is not to kiss you senseless when you send one of those soul shattering smiles in my direction. Maybe I'll tell you all of this. Maybe.
You don't notice, though. When I smile, you choose to believe that I am simply kind, ignoring the love i try so hard to put behind it. When I take your hand, you see me as only your friend, ignoring the buzz that the contact should bring. When I take you in my arms, you accept the warmth and comfort I offer, but refuse my hope that you'll want to stay. With me. Where I want to always have you. You don't seem to notice that I'm so in love with you that it hurts when you're not near me. You look at me but don't see me. I seem to be hiding behind this veil of feelings for you and you simply push it aside. Don't you see the affection gushing from me?
Maybe I'll have the courage to Maybe I'll be brave enough to give up my security blanket and approach you with my confession. But for now, I've been watching you Kim, and I'm hoping you'll notice.
Author's Note:
Hey guys. I think I enjoyed writing this. Figured I'd try my hand at writing from a boy's perspective. Not quite sure I succeeded and I need you wonderful people to let me know. Kindly leave me a review and tell me what you think.
