My thoughts of you
have a tendency to interfere with my schoolwork.
My days are filled with dreaming - wide awake -
of what might be said.
The mere sight of you
seizes me with such bittersweet want
that I feel lightheaded.
I would rather dwell on images of your face
than accept the paltry hours of sleep allowed me.
I exist for the slightest chance
that your eyes might meet mine in the hallway.
You know I think it's true...
tortured longing often comes wrapped
in pretty packages of blissful joy.
I want you more than there are words to express.
