First Crush

I'm usually outspoken,
why am I this shy?
Felt a sudden rush,
as I saw you walking by.
Though pinned, my legs trembled,
and my lips became frozen,
as 10,000 sharpened pores,
boldly pointed your direction.
How can I approach you?
My knees they seem so weak!
How can I express myself?
These lips won't let me speak.
All suddenly red cheeked,
I gave myself away.
That's when you came walking,
towards me, oh this familiar day.
Felt a sudden breeze again,
though funny there won't any.
Saw no one else around...
even though there were so many.
Held my gaze, as I did yours, you smiled...
as I prayed again," May this moment never end."
But, ever too soon, I'll wake from this dream
and I'll be invisible again..
Invisible to you, but visible to love,
things from my view, are as real as it seems.
For you would always be my first Crush,
the one who leaves me speechless, even in my dreams....
