My Edward & I

forgotten

I tried to catch your eye in class, 

I didn't want to seem too reserved, 

And let a thank you pass, 

When one was deserved. 

But you never even turned your head, 

My way, 

And I noticed you making friends, 

While I tucked away, with no words to say. 

Did you know I kept the flower

In a tiny glass jar?

That I looked at it for hours

Before I went to sleep?

Did you feel my gaze on you?

All those hours in history and art?

I watched you quietly read a lesson, 

Or give advice or kind remarks. 

But not once did our eyes meet, 

To exchange the secret we both keep. 

Do you even like me at all?
