Thought I would share a poem I wrote back in 2001 as I think it fits here. It is not inspired from personal experience by the way.

Hey, It's me (that one guy) [2001]

On the streets I pass everyday,
But you always look the other way.
Day after day I try,
Only for you to go by.

Ignore me forever you may.
Yet I cannot say,
What will be today.

Smiling all the way,
You go about your day,
I'm lost in my own way.

I try to say hello,
Only to here my echo.
My silence you only hear,
Draws my eye a tear.

It is with that I fear,
You will never hear,
All the things I want to say,
Which now will never see the light of day.

Ignore me forever you may,
Yet I cannot say,
What will be today.

Hey, it's me,
The girl you pass every day.

I like it...
thanks for sharing
