Watching

I watched you
Sit on the bench
Cheering on the team
When you did get
On the court
The whole crowd cheered
You were definitely good
I loved watching you out there
Now I can watch you
In gym
When you play basketball
Or run track
Or anything else
I want to talk to you
But what about
I have no clue
I would talk to you
About basketball
But what's the use
You'd never care
Your sun bleached blonde hair
Your sky blue eyes
Your wide sexy smile
Soon I will no longer
Be able to just watch you
I will have to
Be active and play something
But for now
I am quite content
Staring at you
Wanting you
Needing you
Knowing I can never have you
Will not stop me
I don't understand
Why I'm falling
For you
Maybe it's your smile
Maybe it's your voice
I have no clue
All I know is that
I really really want you
If nothing else
I want you as a friend
We will never be friends
Because I do not want
To have to say goodbye
To anyone else
But actually
I think for you
I would make a definite exception
The love in my heart
Will always be there
I just found out
That once I've cared
I will always
Always care for someone
Hopefully
I won't have to just
Wish you cared
Please take me
Into your heart
And love me completely
