Secret Admirer

I'm smaller than a redwood
Bigger than a shrub,
The mightiest of the mighty oaks
Couldn't break my love.
When I see you in the hall
My heart starts to flutter,
I think that i might fall
For my knees turn to butter.
I watch you and all your radiance
Just walk on by,
I'd give anything in the world
If, to me, you just said, "Hi."
Your hair is strands of silk
Flowing in a breeze,
I really want to talk to you
But my vocal chords just freeze.
Your love is all I want from you
My heart's already yours,
I wish that if I say 'I love you'
You'd say 'I love you more.'
You are all that's on my mind
Every day and every night,
I wish that you'd be mine forever
I wish that with all my might.
I guess this poem's gonna end
Although it doesn't have to,
At first I was going to say 'Goodbye'
But instead, I'll say I love you.

A little bit of history:

This is the first poem that I ever wrote just for the fun of it. It's rough around the edges, but that's the way I like this one. It's not really about anyone in particular just about some dude admiring someone from afar.
