Hell if I Know
By: Tara Rickman
Why is it that when I see you my heart aches?
I've never spoken to you nor do I even know your name.
It's as if I know you though we've yet to meet.
As if I know you will only hurt me if I give us a chance.
But all I can manage to muster up is a simple glance.
A glance in your direction in hopes you may see.
See me looking at you and maybe want us to be.
Why do I think of you every other minute... better yet, why do I think of you every other second?
The hell if I know why you are always on my mind.
The hell if I know why I long for you all the time.
You are so strange and so different.
Odds are the only reason I think that is because we haven't met yet.
Why the hell I desire you so much is a mystery to me.
However, at this moment I'm wondering if you think the same of me.

But you don't know how close to home this hits...My exact feelings put into words. Wouldn't it be amazing if that person started a conversation w/ you?
I'm always nervous when it comes to starting a conversation w/ a girl in random public situations. My dream is to have the next girl come up to me, but that's probably just a dream cause I'm so pessimistic

Trust me when I say a girl will definitely start a conversation with you! We talk peoples' ears off all the time and love when someone just listens. Don't be nervous you have a better chance of getting a girl by approaching her then never trying at all. Thank you for your comment I'm glad you enjoy the poem!

i think it is possible to be attracted and connected to a stranger on more than a physical level. I mean you never really know until you get to know a person. But the desire to get to know someone is really the initial connection

I feel the same way about someone too. Anyway, good poem, need polishing but not much.
