There you are

Across the room

Here I am

Staring at you



Are eyes lock

Such a simple gaze

Is it love?

Or just another phase?



I see you

And you see me

My real self

How can this be?

I've tried so hard

To stay hidden

But my wall is broken

With all the love you've given



We come closer

So close we can touch

Still nothing is said

Yet silent words say so much



Our eyes begin to wonder

Fearing we know the truth

Two people cannot love one another

At our stage of youth
