Poetry: Uncontrollable feelings

*~Secret Oasis~*


How many times

I have noticed you

And catching my breath

I am caught off-guard

thinking I must be crazy

In some little way

I keep it well-hidden

(At least I think)

Pushed away

To the point

Where in my mind

I ignore you

Just a little.

You intrigue me

In the deepest sense

Your mind

Your sensitivity

All come into play

Imagination the most fertile

Breeding ground

Of fantasy there is.

I admire you from afar

Though you will never know

Because even I know

how unrealistic these thoughts are.

I keep it locked tight

And let it out carefully

When I am alone

To look at it from all sides

And wonder why it exists.

Perhaps just a diversion

For a heart too scarred

To give all to reality

The alternative

Not even to be considered.
