Secret Admirer

i’m Your secret Admirer
of course You don’t know me
but i try my best to find out all i can
about You
Your birthday, Your preferences, Your pet peeves
i steal glances at You
my heart beats furiously
whenever You are near
You never notice when we pass each other
along the corridors
but i, i count the times and carefully store each moment
in my memory
how i long to tell You of my affections …

but

if i told You, i wouldn’t be your secret admirer any longer
would i?
