I Wanted To Meet You

Your black hair reminds me of the first time I saw you And the second time and the third I would watch you walk by me You were so caught up in the moment. Laughing with some person on the phone. hair in a pony tail I would watch as it swung back and forward. So much life in your eyes. So beautiful it caught me by surprise. I wanted to meet you. But I knew I would never try. So I admired you from a far. Stealing glances across the cafeteria I told all my friends about you I thought you were someone I would never have I said look at her and her dark hair " she's perfect" I knew you were perfect with just one glance That was than and this is now and every now and than you still make me nervous. I waited a long time to meet you. It took forever to greet you. And now I'm afraid of goodbyes. It's ironic because not too long ago I was afraid to say HI.
