Every Time I See Her

Every time she walks past me,

The oxygen around me fades.

Everytime I see her smile,

It feels like my heart, a little it breaks.

My eyes have wandered in the past,

But only she catches my eye.

My heart has rented a few,

Don’t know why she seems to own it.

Her flowing hair is a trap,

My heart often gets caught like a fish.

Her innocent smile is an ocean,

In her thoughts often I drown.

I try to speak, but I search for words,

As my voice gets lost in her presence.

She is close, yet so far away,

And it just doesn't seem fair.

I wonder if she even knows,

How deeply I think of her.

But I bury my feelings within,

Afraid of what might happen.
