Falling in Love Poem

This is a poem about a person that I am truly in love with, but I am just going to keep it a secret admirer.

Secret Admirer

© Mandy
I've never been the type to say what I feel
So basically I keep everything inside
And with you it was no different
I want to tell you, believe me I've tried

But there's part of me that just can't take that chance
So I doubt that you'll ever know
Which may be fine with you, but it's hurting me
I choose not to show it though

I guess I'm your secret admirer
That name seems to fit just right
I don't know what I like about you
But you're on my mind, day and night

Maybe it's the way you look
So sexy I can't get enough
Or how you make me feel when you come around
I instantly forget all other stuff

Maybe it's the way you say my name
Or maybe it's the way you smile
Then again it might just be everything
Getting to know you seems worth my while

But I guess I'll never know what it is
My true feelings I could never reveal to you
I'll just admire you from a distance
I'm not sure what else there is to do

  • This poem tells my story I'm in love with my friend but she doest know how much she means to me that I basically do anything for her. I wish I can tell her some day how I truly feel but I'm afraid she will reject me.

  • Don't keep your feelings a secret you may regret that in the future. Just think of the worst thing that could happen, and how you'd deal with it if it happens, then just take a deep breath and tell that person. I once loved a friend and didn't have the guts to tell him and I couldn't stay anywhere near him, so after I ended our friendship, after a long time I figured that he felt the same way about me. And of course it was too late we both have already went our separate ways.

  • I do love somebody, but we're not friends. She just knows me and I know her. She doesn't think I'm a cool person but I'm not such a "dude" or whatever. She doesn't know that I love her, and always think of her. A girl once asked me out but I rejected her because I was thinking of the other girl I like. That girl was my friend (we were just friends). then I regretted my rejection for her. Both girls got a boyfriend and I got left alone.

  • This poem I feel was written just for me LOL I absolutely love this poem it explains the way I feel about a neighbor. We have never spoke besides hi by for some reason I'm so attracted to her and I really want to get to know her, but as the poem said in the beginning I was never the type of person to express my feelings. So I will just keep this my little secret, but as always I end up hating the fact that I never said anything and ask God when will I get over my fear of rejection because I just want to be open and free with the ones that I would love to get to know.....

  • I have a crush on this guy in my dance and school class but he's not one to date and 2 of my friends also like him and if I ask him out and he says yes it could ruin my friendship but if he says no I'll be soo embarrassed. I don't know what to do.

  • This poem speaks the absolute truth for so many people. It has been going on 6 years now. From the moment she stepped into my life she had something to her that I can't even describe. There are times where I think I see she has feelings for me but we all know it is very hard to actually figure it out without hearing the words. I would give anything to hear those words from her. If I don't I will continue to be the best friend. I can't risk loosing this friendship

  • This Is my story. I like this girl, but she is a year and grade above me. I'm but a young fifth grader, at the end of this summer, a sixth grader. She is no longer in my elementary school. I wish I said something before... Yes you might think this is just a stupid, passing thing, but it isn't. I liked her for 2 years now, but haven't said a word. I think I will regret this decision. I liked her for her personality. Well, you probably won't read this but, bye. - Your secret admirer, To Ariel. ♥

  • I feel the same way, I'm in 12th grade (a senior in high school), I'm 17 yrs old, and just lately I've been starting to play playing cards with some friends, and my friend's ex's friend, started playing with us daily, and I've started to get interested in her, we've talked a bit, I've figured out that we have some stuff in common, and now, she's all that I think about... I don't wanna pass up any opportunity, but I'm a shy guy, so just being open in the middle of a group is NOT a easy thing to do... =/ I really like her, I haven't felt this way in a few years, didn't expect to feel like this this year too... like I heard a few days ago, "when there's fear, there's a desire, the greater the desire, the greater the fear."

  • It's as if Mandy knew what I am experiencing, I am in love with my friend. I met him a couple of months ago but from the time I saw him I just knew he was the one, but the problem is I couldn't express it or even say it till he travelled back.
    I think I will have to live with this forever coz I can't let him know.

  • She's active duty in the army and I'm reserves. I met her a basic training and fell in love with her there. I could never tell her how I felt because I was to afraid of what she would say. To make things worse I'm a female as well. To Coronado sorry I never had the guts to tell you how much you really meant to me.

  • I love this poem. I am feeling the exact same way about this guy so I know how you feel. I actually already told him but that's a different story. I'm not saying for you to tell him but don't keep it inside for a long time. I'ts just going to hurt you more by waiting.

  • For the past two months I've been giving the boy I like sweet poems-like this one-and each poem gave him details about how I looked. He later found out, we were good friends and he recognized my handwriting. It was very embarrassing, but he had a crush on me for quite some time. He asked me out and we've been dating for 3 weeks<3

  • I was like this, I kept all of my feelings in and then my little brother ended up finding out and he told her, I regret for her finding out, cause I don't know how she feels, I think she doesn't feel the same for me though.

  • I still have a crush but the thing is that the boy I am liking is afraid of love. He hates this feeling but I am madly in love with him. Him and me are so good friends that we go out for vacations and it's just him and me who are always together and he even kisses me on my forehead as friend. We hangout a lot and just we two are always planning to go out for some time to spend with each other. I care for him a lot and so does he, but still I cannot tell him that I like him because I cannot afford to lose him at all. So, even I am a kind of secret admirer to him. :)

  • This poem relates to everyone who has crushes, including me. I really like this guy for about 4 years now, and we are really good friends. I can never let him know though, because our friendship means so much to me, and I think me telling him how I feel may risk the chances of us being friends again. So one day, I told him extremely fast, and when he caught on with what I said, he said yes! We're seeing each other now. So to all those girls and boys, no matter what age you are, who has a crush on someone, just build courage, go up to him/her and say it fast. Some may work, some might not. If it doesn't, it wasn't meant to be, because in the future there is someone out there who could die for you. Good luck to all!
