7 in the morning, and I see him out running.
My stomach churns at the sight of him.
Confused as to how he came out,
this early that too to workout.

Nevertheless i try to jog.
i blush and run faster
hiding my face amidst the fog.

How long has it been that I have been loving him,
just a sight of him makes my entire world flip.
Tired, I give up and stop at the far end,
looking for him;
And still not making it obvious,
trying to pretend.

Suddenly something happens as if my dream comes true.
Exhausted, he comes towards me all tired and blue.
Butterflies in my stomach, a really fast pounding chest,
my love! please dont judge me, for now, I'm not at my best.

His curly hair bouncing with every step of his.
My heart pounding faster, now that he is closer: this.
Just then he smiles a smile only heaven can make,
making me fall all the way more deeper in his love,
this is just a dream please wake..

Eyes inches apart;
bodies just a hug apart;
he bends over and asks me for a bottle of water.

I lose my conscious,
with him being so close
hesitantly, i hand him the water.

Humidity breathed in his face and ran fingers through his hair.
Alas! I felt jealous of the beads of perspiration smiling with a glee,
for they get to be so close to him, where i can't be.

His apple elevating filled as he quenches his thirst,
I curse myself in despair, "Why didn't I meet him first!"

Now he has her and his life is too sound,
tearing me up everytime I see them together,
Oh Lord! why wasn't I found?

As he was done he handed me back the bottle filled with life.
This bottle now has his taste, I want tp taste his lips as if I were his wife.

And for a millisecond, our skins met through hands,
that is when i realised,
this boy is way above my standards and league but,
this boy will always be my life.
