Hearts soar among clouds
Especially mine right now.
Spring fever has come.

The sun slowly sets
On a mild spring day.
I want to go out.

My heart flies for you
Higher than the pure white doves.
My love is as pure.

I sit quietly,
Wishing for someone to talk,
Especially him.

They don’t understand
How my mind tends to work.
I wish that they did.

He quietly sits
Next to a different girl.
I wish I was her.

I wish he would look
Over his laptop to me
So our eyes would meet.
