He asked me out last year. I didn't even know who he was. I didn't say yes. But now... Now I miss him--like the desert's missed the rain. I heard that in a song once.1
Sometimes, when I am lonely, I sit staring at an open doorway or at a staircase, hoping he will appear, knowing that he won't. And he never does.2
I see him in the hallway at school everyday. We never talk. At least not to each other. I can't talk to him.3
All the time I wonder if he knows. If he hates me. If he still loves me.4
Whenever I see him, I force myself to catch the tears before they fall. I want to be with him so badly, but I can't have him. I turned him down. 5
Thinking about his eyes. Deep, dark... Undiscovered. Recalling his hair, wispy about his ears. Crying over the man I never got the chance to lose. Remembering how I can never be with him. Remembering how much love hurts.6
Author notes
I couldn't think of a title for it, and, at the end of the fifth paragraph, I was going to put in something like "my arm feels my misery...but decided against it. Hope you like it.
Buh bye

I actually wrote a poeem similar to this topic. Maybe I should post it... ;o)

Thank you very much! This, unfortuantely, is true. I said no to him, almost a year ago because I didn't know him. I barely knew his name. I realize, now that I want to know everything about him, that I shoud've given him a chance... How else are supposed to get to know someone if you don't even give them a moment of your time? I was stupid. I still am, I think!

Hmmm. this is sad, but I'm wondering why you would have said no in the first place? and if this is a true story, then talk to him. I wish you all the best

OMG. this is really good. is this true? if it is, you can still have a chance!!! a guy asked me out twice, i turned him down both times (the first time because i was going out with somebody even though i wasn't supposed to and the second because i wasn't supposed to and i didn't want to go behind my parents back again. and it would be supper hard because the guy, Colin, his mom is friends with my mom. so that would be interesting to keep under wraps. but i do like him though!! but i don't know how to tell him!! why is insane, because i'm pretty sure he still likes me.) ANYWAY. this is a beautifully written piece. wonderful job!!!
