First Sight

Andrea Suresh 2002 (Mumbai)



The day I saw him,
I knew he has to be mine!
Music started playing
 I could hear my heat thumping.

He was the only person I could see,
it was as if only we existed,
He sparkled like the sun ,so warm and bright,
And I like a sunflower started to bend towards his might.

He was sweet as nectar,
and I like a honeybee started to buzz around him,
I'd like to taste him, underneath my breadth I whispered,
And savor the taste, that I knew I couldn't afford!

I tried to approach him,
but just tucked my hair behind and passed by,
and each time I did, that moment, that instance ,
 Well....I hid my smile and passed by in silence.

I then once decided to confess to him,
and hence wrote a poem,
It was P.E lecture ,in my hand I held it,
But I asked myself for him am I fit?

I crumbled my Love of youth,
and threw it off with that poem,
I hope someday I could confess,
Because the Love hidden in my heart was never gonna get less.
