The hallway was quiet
There I was I shuffling along
I saw you walking towards me
You smiled and said hi
Walked away in my silence
Nothing was wrong
I was far too shy, silly me
My failure left me feeling crucified
My heart was so very broken
To ever know what to do
In the face of opportunity
To speak to you
My spirit sank as you faded from view
Walking back to your dorms
My life is better now than then
I don't live in the past
I do stop and think of you
Because of my inner storms
I was trapped in a paralytic zen
And the moment passed
But my heart was so unspoken
And I longed to speak to you
In the face of someone so lovely
I didn't know what to do
