i wish that you could read this

I'll stop staring,

I'll stop caring,

I'll stop texting you,

I'll stop hoping you'll like me too. 

There's no point in staring if you don't meet my gaze,

There's no point in caring if you don't feel the same,

There's no point in texting if you don't text back,

You won't like me so I'll let it stay like that. 

I can take a hint, so I'll back away

like I should've done on the second day. 

If there wasn't hope then, why would there be now?

Because you just think I'm a girl in a crowd

Who watches you because I think we match,

Who keeps turning to see if you looked back,

Who writes poems about you because I'm a freak,

But I just want to go back to how it used to be, 

Even if you still hated me. 

But look, I'm over it all,

And now I wish I didn't fall.
