Andrea Dietrich Poet Quatern

Crushing On You

I’m crushing on you; can’t you see
the look on my face when you’re near?
You don’t even seem to see me,
and that is the thing I most fear.

Each time that I see you walk by,
I’m crushing on you; can’t you see
how I’m trying to catch your eye?
Just how obvious must I be?

Sometimes you turn nonchalantly
toward me watching you. I turn red!
I’m crushing on you. Can’t you see?
I’ve no way to get in your head!

To my existence, are you blind?
Please tell me the reality.
For always it’s you on MY mind.
I’m crushing on you; can’t you see?

Faraz Ajmal May 12, 2019 at 10:47 AM Well I can relate to your poem, in my class there's a girl and I have a secret crush on her (shh it is a secret) sometimes she notice me looking at her and she just stares, that awkward stare, maybe an angry one or amazed, done know, well that's all finish now because last week was the last day of my O levels and God knows whether she will be there in next class or not, anyways I really enjoyed reading your poem, many congrats on your wondering win, good luck

Michelle Faulkner April 28, 2019 at 2:34 PM It's interesting how you always seem to get a 'crush' on the one person who is completely unaware of you - but maybe that's the point? Andrea Dietrich April 28, 2019 at 4:02 PM I must have felt this way about ten different guys from junior high until college! I dated a lot, but for some dang reason the ones i crushed on were rarely the ones who sought me out!

Jennifer Walker April 25, 2019 at 6:21 PM How I felt whenever I was around any of my sisters, you included, sis. With their boyfriends and me looking at the guy noticing him looking at anyone but me. Andrea Dietrich April 25, 2019 at 7:54 PM yes, I know, Jenny and I'm sorry you felt that way. You were a late bloomer and you found Your MR RIGHT in the end!! Do you remember the many years I pined for the likes of Chris Frogley, Ricky Adams, Dan, the list goes on and on.....

Tom Cunningham April 25, 2019 at 4:46 PM Sometimes people don't want to make a move in case they've read the signs wrong. Or worse they're not interested, humans are strange creatures at times. Tom. Good luck.

Vijay Pandit April 25, 2019 at 7:33 AM Definitely all the sweet sights and sounds of a crush..all the best Andrea.
