To that girl love hides


To that girl Love was something that always hid Others always searched for it She’d follow after them looking into every crevice, every corner In every room she’d gaze quietly along with them She’d stand as far back as she could and watched at how they encountered others A spark flying at the meeting of eyes Yet the spark wasn’t all too illuminating Not even all that bright A heartbeat wasn’t skipped Butterflies weren’t fluttering inside Birds weren’t singing So why did they not notice That something was not right And then where you’d least expect Love shines ever so bright That girl saw it, her heart pounding “Look, look! There it is! What you’ve been looking for…quick!” she’d yell at them Yet they could not hear her And love moved on and away waiting to be discovered another day
