you knew?

i fell first,
i fell hard.
i'd promised that the last boy
was going to be my last time
falling in love.
but then i saw his hazel eyes,
curly hair, and silly smile.
and 'hey, i think i know you,' comes in my mind.
he didn't notice me,
didn't look at the love in my charcoal eyes.
'perhaps he doesn't care.'
sometimes i wished he didn't know
everytime I broke eye contact and walked past him,
that i'd be happy being his silent admirer.
and the other times,
i wished he knew everything-
the way i could listen to him speak all day,
the way I could get lost in his eyes,
the way I could write pages about him,
and how he's got the right height.
i loved him,
everyone knew about it,
except him.
