He said “Hi” today. <br />Oh God, what did I say? <br />“Good morning” or something, <br />It was total instinct. <br />If my heart did stop, my lungs didn`t help. <br />At an instant I froze inside myself. <br />I wonder if he knows how beautiful he is. <br />That nature, herself shyes green away envious. <br />And a light called “hope” shines from his eyes. <br />Now my heart hurts but I`m not going to cry… <br />He said “Hi”. <br />I wish I knew what he was thinking. <br />As he turned his head to look at me. <br />Maybe the pain from his thought`s reality <br />Would crash down on me like gravity. <br />It`s all a trick fate loves to play. <br />To twist this damage within me like clay. <br />See, I know I`ll never be good enough <br />To deserve the encompassing warmth of his love. <br />So I`m standing here, still in time <br />Wishing I`d never seen his eyes. <br />He said “Hi”.<br /><br />Brandi Guthrie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/he-said-hi/
