Two rows behind

I saw her smile in the sunlight glow,

By the sea where soft winds blow.

Books in hand, her hair untied,

I watched her laugh and time just died.

Every day I sat two rows behind,

Pretending not to lose my mind.

Tides would rise, but I stood still,

Hoping one day, maybe she will…

---

Notice me like I noticed her,

Hearts can whisper without a word.

By the sea, where dreams begin,

I found my love in the ocean wind.

And now she sees, she looks my way—

Like waves that knew they'd meet someday.

---

Coffee breaks and silent stares,

Shared the sky, but never dared.

Then one night, she smiled so slow,

Said, “Hi... I’ve seen you, you know.”

We walked the shore in twilight hush,

Feet in sand, cheeks in blush.

No big plans, just hearts set free,

Two souls meeting by the sea.

---

Notice me like I noticed her,

Hearts can whisper without a word.

By the sea, where dreams begin,

I found my love in the ocean wind.

And now she sees, she looks my way—

Like waves that knew they'd meet someday.

---

Now when the sunset paints the tide,

I don’t watch alone—I’ve got her by my side.

From college halls to ocean breeze,

She’s the shore, and I’m the sea.
