Creep

I've come to a realization. I'm a creep

I tried to deny it, but it runs too deep

I could get by without it being obvious

Until I saw you, but you didn't see me. We were too far apart

Yet here I sit with my fluttering heart

I can barely focus and don't know what to do

My eyes keep drifting up to find you

Before I know, class is at an end

I look to you, you're sitting with your friend

Talking and putting things away

I pack up slowly, for you, I must stay

Soon you're both walking away and heading for the door

I go to a different exit but still want more

I turn again to see your interesting face

Eventually you begin to turn a corner as you walk

And I'm forced to leave and no longer gawk

This isn't the first time this has happened

But every time, my reaction has strengthened

This right now might be pretty mild

But every time I see you, I think you're wild

I won't let you go, I know I can't

I will follow you until I can't

I won't be free

Until you notice me

We won't be free

Until we're together happily

You won't be free

Until you take the time to notice me
