Who?

 

Who?

Hidden in your loneliness
Locked up in silence for the fear that you may drive him away
Slowing stalking him and lurking in his shadows
Checking through his page daily and wishing you could tap that like button.
Seated behind him in class everyday and waving at him from your mind.
Crying for ignoring the first 'hello' and the only 'hi' he has ever said to you
Declining the invites to events he would be present at.
Your heart has been broken too many times
You are so afraid because he looks even more dangerous than the previous ones
Your young and fragile heart yearns for him
But you are hidden in your loneliness and guilt
What if I told you that he stalks your page too
He smiles at you whenever you walk past
He hangs out with your friends silently wishing you would turn up
He is afraid because you never said 'hi' back
His heart has also been broken many times and he doesn't want to hurt you but he wants you so bad
You are both hidden in your individual hurts
If only you both knew you were made for each other
Now that you are both in each other's shadows
Who is going to make the next move?
