Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto in any way shape or form. If I did I would be able to be as lazy as Shikamaru. So please no sueing.

Author's Notes: This is a short poem I wrote a while ago that describes from Hinata's point of view her feelings for Naruto. This is my first submission to this site and currently my only piece of fanfiction. However if I get my lazy ass in gear it shouldn't be my last. Please review since I am always looking to better my writing. If you want to read more of my writing check out my homepage. Well thank you for taking the time to read this and please, please, please review.

Acknowledge me,

Please,

I've been waiting for so long and it is you who makes me strong.

Whenever I'm lost and don't know what to do,

All I need is to look at you.

It's your smile and your laughter that makes my life worthwhile.

And when tears fall from your eyes I too cry.

I want to be strong like you,

So that I can help you achieve your dream.

I want to be the one who comforts you when the world is cruel and mean.

It would mean the world to me if you looked at me with love in your eyes.

Then my heart would not cry.

I try so hard to open this stuttering mouth and say how I feel,

But my tongue is paralyzed by fear,

Scared that your words aren't the ones I dream to hear.

I want to hold you and never let go.

I want to be with you always,

Even if the world says no.

I need to hear you say you love me because I love you Naruto-kun.
