what if??

I see you in the halls, a warmth I long to feel, My brain commands retreat, my heart begs to reveal. Unseen, unknown, yet in your gaze, time slows its pace, A silent admiration, a love I can't erase. I never meant to fall, yet here I stand, undone, Watching you with someone else, wishing I'd outrun My fear, my doubt, the silence that kept us apart, Now just a "what if," a tear-stained, broken heart.
