Her! by Mohammad Khalil

The first day of freshmen year when I came to Washington High School I SAW HER! She was beautiful butterflies in my stomach a small chill crawls up my spine. Does she notice me, does she know I exist in this world. I started feeling on my cheeks to see if I have a clean shave or not and that was when I didn't have a handsome beard like I do now. I start to approach her like I am a lion and she is my prey but I start to loose feeling in my legs and start to walk funny. I get close and all I do is give her eye contact, and the second she looks at me I turn away because I was frighten. Every day of my life since that day I kept my mouth shut and all I did was have eye contact. Too scared to say something or to do anything.. Damn I am a fool and a coward. I look at her she looks at me and I am not sure if she even notices me or even knows my name. Know one knows about her but me sometimes my friends would mention her and how they would want to do whatever they wanted to do, oh how that would get me angry and I would ask them to "quiet  down you FUCKS." Its not respectful behavior, they would look at me weird and just ignore me or sort of change the subject. I have always wanted to talk to her but every time I am around a beautiful girl such as herself I would start to studded and twitch and get all my words twisted. I know what I am about to say is corny but here it goes anyways, "I would always daydream about her getting hurt or falling and I am about to catch her like a hero and then she would finally notice me." But I know nothing like that would ever happen like this.  So I am screwed with the regular coward approach plan. When will I ever talk to her maybe never? Will I ever get a chance in the future maybe not, Will I regret this definitely. I am probably going to live with regret for the rest of my life.

Very heartfelt and evocative documentation of young, possibly unrequited love.
