Waiting.
I'm not sure how it started,
I don't know how it happened;
but suddenly, one day,
it's like I heard a tapping.
The tapping happened in my heart
Acting like a wake-up call
As if a little man was in me, shouting:
''Look at that boy, standing tall.
Look at his features, look at his face,
see that jet black hair.
Can't you see the beauty in him?''
And then I started to stare.
It's true, he's beautiful; I wouldn't doubt it,
and he was actually very sweet.
It was then that I noticed his emerald green eyes;
I think my heart skipped a beat.
Rumour had it that he was in love with a girl;
a girl who I knew well.
When I heard, I felt like breaking down;
I was distraught, and people could tell.
I watched him walk and talk with that girl,
and as I watched, I got so weak.
I felt like throwing up that time
when I saw him kissing her cheek.
But one day, I decided that I'd be patient;
I will not be hating.
For I know that that girl will break his heart,
and when she does, I'll be here for him; waiting.
