Love at a distance

I watched her
I watched as she laughed
I watched from a distance

I loved when she stood next to me
I loved when she focused on me
I loved when she would smile at me

She was beautiful
And I loved her
From a distance away

She didn't know that she tortured me
By falling for another
And I would never tell her

I watched as she cried over her broken heart
I wanted to hold her
I wanted to care for her and sooth her broken heart

I loved when she looked up at me
With her dazzling eyes
And her loud laughter

I loved her sense second grade
She didn't know
And would never know

And I would do anything to make her happy
Even if that meant
Never telling her of my love

I keep my love at a distance....

Author's Note

This is at the perspective of a guy I know

This is a very good poem,and very different that you put it in a guy perspective.

Good poem. Keep writing!

Each of us will have desire for another and they will never know. I like the poem. Told a tale of someone who is so close and so far away. A excellent poem. Thank you.

Great job. However this reminds me of another poem you write. I wonder if I'm reading this twice? I like it though.

Vicariously living... what some prefer rather than actually experiencing things first hand.

The stuff movies are made of......makes me hope that someday she'll realize...

Wonderful poem. Those unrequited loves can be the worse, but also the most fun.
