Jenilee
Your spirit only known,
For just a short time.
Exuding with a uniqueness,
Your essence is sublime.
I watch you from a distance,
Mesmerized in a trance.
Giving up with no resistance,
My soul wanting to dance.
I watch you from near,
Wondering what you feel.
With a glance and long peer,
A gaze wishing to steal.
Are you a cruel lie?
Or just a fantasy unseen?
Behind those hypnotic eyes,
Emanates radiant beams.
I wish to know you,
From the inside out.
Is your heart blue?
Does your mind roam about?
What fears make you scream?
What angers you to shout?
What joys help you to dream?
What inspires you to let it all out.
I hide behind a screen,
Speaking freely how I feel.
More comfortable unseen,
Sharing thoughts that are real.
I know in my heart,
What words I want to say.
But amongst your presence,
They up and run away.
