Taking a Chance

Taking a Chance

A Poem by lyss
"

Something I wrote about a crush awhile ago. I was at a time in my life where I wasn't sure of where I was going in life and in relationships.

"
A look that's all it took
I looked at you 
You looked back too.
Nothing much just a bunch of looks...
Those looks 
They broke me down,
Gave me hope.
That's all it took, just one look.

You look at me with that twinkle in your eyes,
That hidden laugh... that hidden smile.
I looked back, did I dare to believe
That you looked at me the same way too.
Could it be I found that moment?
Could it be true?
That's all it took 
Just that one look.
It threw me for a loop
am I blind or am I just...
You can't like me...
Or can you?

Doesn't matter.
You walked away.
You left me for that someday great.
I sat there starring at your back,
But that look...
It never left,
Just one look...
That's all it really took.

A single second is never forgotten when someone had excited our mind and soul. I like the description and the surprise ending. Thank you for the excellent poetry.

Very nice. This is incredible in the fact that it describes a relationship that is blossoming at this very moment. The most amazing part is that Look can last a lifetime. I just have to avoid the ending! Thank you for penning this. Keep up the good work.
