Blind Love
Blind Love
He saw her bangles
he heard them chime
he looked at her
but hid behind.
He glimpsed her earrings
as she danced past
he looked at her
but turned away fast.
He saw her hair
as it blew, across her face
he heard her footsteps
as she walked with grace.
He saw how she did
everything with style
how badly he wanted
to share a smile.
The words " I love you"
were at the tip of his tongue
but he was shy
he was afraid, he'd be turned down.
So he looked at her once more
then, sadly he turned away
not knowing
for him, she felt the same way.
