So many times...

 So many times,
My eyes met hers
And every time
my heart missed a beat
So many times I asked myself
Is it love or something else?

So many times, 
I had felt her eyes on me
And had seen
that calm and distant look
So many times I had thought
Was it love or something else?

So many times,
I saw the smile on her face 
And had seen 
That sparkle in her eyes
So many times I had wondered
Was it for me or for someone else?

So many times,
On lonely moonlit nights
I held her hands
And kissed her in my dreams
So many times I cried silently
And hoped my dreams come true.

So many times,
I thought she wanted to say something
But she never did
And let her silence haunt my nights
Many, many times I had wished
If only I could know a girl’s heart.

Very nicely written. I think many of us have been in that same situation. I especially like the last stanza. Silence can really say so much.
