Invisible

Sometimes how I feel towards the one whom interests me.

Am I just invisible?
Or can you see through me?
Are you that interested in the wall?
Or are you looking at me.
I see your eyes dart away,
are you scared?
Am I making all of this up in my mind,
because I want you to be mine.

I screwed up my first chance,
and now I don't know if I'll get another.
I stare afar and always watch you,
I don't want to be enemies.
My voice runs away when I want to talk to you.
Am I overreacting to all of this?
Or is it simply a crush.

I see you and your friends chatting,
sometimes looking over at me.
For all I know you're making fun of me,
or you're telling them everything.
I only want to be friends and maybe something more,
a crush is a harmless little act.

My best friend says to leave it alone,
but I don't know if I should.
Do I trust her or go with my instinct.
My heart flutters whenever your near me,
but I hold it together pretty well.
I'm afraid to speak of you at times,
that the guys will tease me.

I shouldn't feel afraid,
you're only a person.
There are more fish in the sea,
but you're the catch I'm after.
Who knows what could happen?
Am I invisible to you?
Or do you just see right through me?

Author's Note

The word invisible in the first line is supposed to be hard to read, along with the very last line of the poem.

Voltaire had issue with 'Do I trust her or go with my instinct.' He said "Trust and indistinct are as different a night and day. But a lost love is rather heavy, thank you for sharing your work,
