Just Wanted to Say...

That first day,
You walked through that door,
I sensed something within you.
I’m not sure what it was,
Still don’t know yet.
All I know is I wanted to unlock it.

You didn’t talk,
You didn’t look happy.
I could tell you didn’t want to be there.
I felt I might have understood why,
Maybe I was wrong? Maybe not?

It made me curious,
Made me wonder.
I started thinking too much.
Obsessing over it,
Over everything.
Losing sleep.
Dreaming the weirdest dreams.

I tell myself I am crazy,
I don’t know you at all.
And I want to find out more.
But the problem is I’m just too shy,
It may not seem so,
But it’s true.
It takes a lot of courage
To just say a simple ‘Hi’

Especially to you.

The few times I dared to sit next to you.
The few times I dared to casually glance—for a second – at you
It all took courage.

I searched for answers,
Kept my ears opened,
Paid extra attention to things I don’t normally notice,
I Kept my all my senses working,
I’m talking my special extra senses,
The ones that tell me things about people,
The ones that not everyone has.

Hyper-aware of things.
But still no answer.

What was it I sensed?
I still sense it now sometimes,
And I don’t know what to believe.
Maybe I thought about it too much,
That in the end, I got confused.

But I know one thing for sure,
I don’t sense any evil emanating from you.
And I knew you were special
From the moment I saw you walk through that door.
HI.
