    She Didn't Know

    He sat next to her at a lunch table
    Waved and said hello
    Over time, he made her stable
    But she swears she didn’t know

    That soon she would be falling fast
    That she’d want him to be her beau
    That her feelings of friendship just wouldn’t last
    She didn’t know, she didn’t know

    Slowly he became a part of her life
    And stayed through the high and the low
    His warm hug heals cuts from another’s cold knife
    And still, she didn’t know

    It wasn’t until he opened her up inside –
    Watered her and let her grow
    Told her that she didn’t have to hide
    Only then did she know

    That he is all she’ll ever need
    That she’d been struck by Cupid’s bow
    Should she tell him or simply let her heart bleed
    For now it is he who does not know

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
