Waiting

He looks at her from across the room
She sometimes looks back with a shy smile
‘He must like her’ the teacher will assume
But for her to finally realize he likes her take her a while

He knows how to keep her warm at night
By sharing a jacket and cuddling up just right
Taking her hand and dancing to a song
And continuing even when her moves were all wrong

He will laugh at her jokes that aren’t funny
When he stares at her she feels like the sun, so bright and sunny
When he agrees to a date that he would never do
Bu the goes anyway just so that he can be with you

He makes her smile
Even while anxiously waiting
Hopefully it won’t be a longer while
For them to be officially dating
