First Crush

By Rajool Patil

Hey

I didn’t even say a name

And you are blushing

That one feeling which never really fade away

One fine day sitting alone I caught myself smiling when I looked at him

Felt like a thousand feelings rushing in that very moment

Everyday my eyes searched to catch a glimpse of him

I always wonder what crossed his mind when his eye met mine

No calls, no texts, no conversations

But here I was thinking about you all day long

Consciously making an effort to exchange words

And his 0.2% attention would make my heart beat faster

Oh wait ! This ain’t happening

Convincing myself to not fall for it

And there,

He is staring at me….
