Heart In Distress

Admired from afar As a distant shining star Heavy this heart does beat When by chance we do meet Unable to glimpse into your eyes As if a dark shadow passes by Painfully, if I weren't so shy I would, as we pass, say hi This courage I do not posses For now, my heart remains in distress

How did you know about my feelings for Jack O'Hannon? It was long ago but well I remember tripping over my own insecurities every time he was near - so much so that I was void of any personality. You stated the feel of unrequited love for the shy ones as shy turned by all they yearn. This is grand, but not so the feeling! Poetry hugs ... CayCay
