I Know

I Know

A Poem by Carmen Williams

 He doesn't like me 
 the way I like him 
 I know 

 There are girls who are cooler 
 smarter, 
 prettier,
 funnier,
 more talkative,
 more talented, 
 than me
 yeah
 I know  

 Why would he like me? 
 a girl who's socialy awkward 
 a girl who can hardly speak 
 a girl who can't meet his eyes 
 he has no reason to like me 
 I know 

 I'm a nerd 
 an outsider 
 an introvert 
 I don't have a voice 

 I know 
 there is no possible way 
 that he likes me
 but I can't help 
 but glance at him when he's not looking 
 but smile when I hear his laugh 
 but memorize every detail 
 that might help me get noticed 
 It's stupid 
 I know 
 But I can't help how I feel

 I know
 people think I'm to young
 to have a crush like this
 but I don't care
 I can't help feeling this
 tsunami of emotion 
 every hour 
 every minute
 every second
 we're in the same room
