A missed moment

I watched him
From a distance
I wondered if he noticed
That I loved him

I watched her
From a distance
I wonder if she realized
That I loved her

I smiled up at him
But tried not to give to much away
I laughed at his jokes
But kept a safe distance away

I smiled down at her
But kept her at arms length
I sat next to her
But never looked directly at her

My heart pounded hard
And fast
Whenever he walked into a room

I couldn't help but smile
When she picked me out of a crowed room
And walked over just speak to me

So many times I tried
To tell him
To explain to him
That I loved him

I tried so hard
To tell her
To get her to understand
That I loved her

But when I got the courage
To tell him
He was already with someone else

When I finally felt ready
To tell her
She had already moved on to someone else

I missed my chance with him...

I missed my chance with her...

We missed our moment
But sometimes I catch
Him watching me

We missed our chance
But sometimes I see her
Smiling at me

She will always hold my heart

And he will always hold mine.... 

Author's Note

Sorry if this is confusing, it is kind of a new style. Something I think about is that I will miss my moment with the guy i'm meant to be with. So I wrote this :-)

Love is rough, isn't it? Sometimes I just want to give up on it, throw in the towel because the pain isn't worth it. But, it is worth it, I suppose.

I've missed moments before, and now I look back and regret being so quiet and simply smiling. But, what happens is for a reason. Whatever moment we gave up just gave us a chance at a new one.

But, I like this poem, as well as it's style. Good job :)

A duet? That is unusual. Try singing it with a friend to a suitable tune. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

This poem really made me think... And if a poet makes his reader think, that means that he is really a rather wonderful poet.

Awh, this is sweet and I like it. It was a bit confusing at first, until I realized that it's from your POV, as well as his POV. A good idea would be to italiced one of the POVs, or change the font/color. :)

I know this feeling. I just thought that I was meant to be with this girl but things didn't work out as planned. But coming back to this work, I find it really beautiful. Just have no other thoughts.

Those who wait too long. Can miss the good opportunities. A very good story in the poem. It is good to be friends. Life is long and never know when you may fall on the same path again. A excellent poem. Thank you.
