Escuha Tu Corazon

She looks over at him,
He looks back,
Their eyes lock.
They both look back to their work quickly.
A grin comes to her face,
A grin comes to his.
They're both thinking the samething,
Hoping that one likes the other.
Should I make a move?
They think.
They sit still.
Pretending to be working,
Hoping that the other will make a move.
It's 11:44, third period.
The girl gathers her things,
Accidentally drops her Physics text book.
She reaches to get it,
But so does someone else.
She looks up.
Their eyes lock,
They both smile,
Neither break the lock.
