A Crazy Infatuation

by Candice - Taurus

I don't know why I sit here
Staring at nothing in particular
With my mind racing to find a word to rhyme
When I can't even understand how I feel
And I wouldn't be able to spell it if I could
And then I look at you, 
Sometimes you're looking back at me
But... more often you're not.
But why do I let myself get lost in you?
You know, I can't even make myself look away!!!
It's crazy, isn't it?
So many times I've said I hate you,
Without a loival reason of why,
But just becuase you don't want me anymore.
And I keep hearing my name.
But no one even said my name at all.
Maybe it's just my imagination,
Wishing it was your voice
Or maybe someone else's 
The one I really love
But that confuses me too.
If I love him so much,
Why do I waste my time on you?
I guess it's just a crazy infatuation.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem in high school.  There was a kid in my study hall, Keith, and he sat directly across the room from me, facing me.  I was competely fascinated by him and was unable to look away.  We dated briefly after I wrote this poem, but it didn't work out, I was still in love with my the love of my life.
