We've all had a crush in highschool...
To moments long ago
My recollections fondly drift
To things she didn't know
She never knew the times I'd wait
With hopes she'd pass me by
If only just to get a glimpse
The chance she might say hi
A jewel of campus royalty
She courted poise and style
That she would even notice me
Amazed me all the while
The days my luck would shine on me
Her presence filled my air
By radiating from within
A mystic kind of flair
The sweetest charms and elegance
Adorned her like a veil
On winds of youthful innocence
Young fantasies would sail
Long brunette hair cascading down
Framed warm enchanting eyes
The way they made me melt inside
She'd never realize
Enticing lips that'd curl into
A most exotic smile
Fueled dreams of kissing tenderly
On some romantic isle
A figure Michelangelo
Would sculpt back in his day
Was kept in trends accenting curves
That took my breath away
My heart would race my tongue would tie
Whenever she came near
As if entranced caught in a fog
I never could think clear
Intoxicated willingly
Her presence cast a spell
As everytime I tried to speak
My thoughts would just dispel
And yet she'd always talk to me
No matter what I'd say
If only I had found the nerve
To ask her out one day
Her gentle kindness touched my heart
In ways no other's done
A place for her inside my heart
She secretly had won
Time quickly painted parting paths
I'd not see her again
But still my mind would drift to her
On every now and then
I'd wonder how her life had been
If time had fared her well
In hope that she'd found happiness
And what the years would tell
A chance encounter fate had planned
One unsuspecting day
Still tied my tongue in anxious knots
Still took my breath away
Her beauty caught me off my guard
Completely by surprise
Amazed how still she cast a spell
With nothing but her eyes
Her schoolgirl ways had disappeared
A woman's presence shined
Illuminating elegance
Both polished and refined
Who would have thought perfection could
Improve with passing time
But there before me stood the proof
She's yet to reach her prime
The moment passed as fast it came
I watched her walk away
Instilling one more memory
To reminisce some day
A week went by if even that
I've long forgot the date
Incredible coincidence
Another taste of fate
I heard a soft enchanting voice
Somewhere in back of me
I turned around to find her just
As pretty as can be
It's not my place to question chance
On course or origin
But I can't help but think at times
What if...what could have been...
From time to time I'll hear her name
In circles 'round the town
Instinctively it takes me back
To when she was around
She's just that rare and special blend
Of class and style combined
Why else would memories remain
So brightly in my mind

Memories of Marcia
When looking back on yesterdaysTo moments long ago
