The Way You Look at Me

[Justin Silverblade]

What can I say, everyone's got a soft side, eh? This has got a bit of editing work/looking over to be done yet, but I got (as usual) a little anxious and wanted to post it. I hope you enjoy.

 

 

The Way You Look at Me

 

 

The way you look at me,

With sparkling eyes,

Dazzles me as they glow,

Like the new sunrise.

 

Too scared am I to look to you

And deeply stare to those eyes true.

Too frightened you would to see me,

For who I am and not like who I be.

 

The way you smile at me,

With heaven’s lips,

Gives me life and breath,

From feet to fingertips.

 

I return the smile in silent wanting,

Of more than our friendly flaunting.

In silent dreams of fanciful ways,

When together we’d live our days.

 

The way you speak to me,

So innocent and sweet,

Those words of greeting,

Every time we meet.

 

The light touch as you pass by

With silent words, I heave a sigh

What should I do, what should I say

I but watch as you walk away.

[Zariah]

I think this describes a feeling a large amount of people go through.

The poem makes me feel sad, because the narrorator is scared to be rejected, but yearning to have something with that person.

 

Thanks for sharing.
