A short poem about unrequited love.
The first time I saw you
My head ceased to think
Your eyes drew me in
And your words made me numb

The second time I saw you
My heart was melted to liquid
Your smile was all I needed
And your company was all I wanted

The third time I saw you
My soul could not sing
Your love was for another
And your time was spent away from me

The fourth time I saw you
My ears grew anxiety
Your wedding had been planned
And your happiness was not with me

The fifth time I saw you
My tears were a mask of joy
Your vows had been made
And your life would never be mine
