Today I wrote three poems (one was posted today in the poetry forum, eventually the other two will be) about a girl I've been fawning over for some time. As far as I know she doesn't know how I feel and I'm hesitant to say anything to her because I'm afraid she thinks of us as just good friends and in her mind won't view me any other way. The poems are probably nothing special but they are inspired by her. I'm thinking about sending them one by one anonomously and building up some kind of desire in her. Maybe when she figures out I wrote them she can't help but see me in a different light? any advice?
I can't speak for her but I would think it's a nice thing to do. O suppose it would depend on the poem. But I doubt that you are going to sound like a stalker. I haven't read you poem but you know what I mean?

And you dont think she will figure out right away that they are coming from you? Sounds risky bro, unless you think there is a chance anyway?! Just ask her out is my opinion that way if she says no you wont waste your time. Not that your poems are a waste of time, but I mean having feelings for someone and not plugging in those feelings to make the connection
I def think you should give her the poems, but you should be up front about them. Give 'em to her face to face. My husband filled 2 notebooks with poetry inspred by me, before & while we were dating, and if he had given them to me right away, there wouldn't have been nearly as much guesswork about how he felt, blah blah blah. He finally gave the to me when we moved in together and to this day they are the things I treasure most. I think if you just give her the poems, it's a quick way to figure out what kind of chick she is, and how she feels about you. I know it's nervewracking, :sweatdrop but I think it's the best idea. Let us know how it goes either way. Good Luck!
BTW, the poem is beautiful, and any girl should be flattered to receive it, much less to be considered the inspiration for it.
Poetry can be romantic, depends on teh girl really. One of my now ex's wrote me a piece of poetry that, well. I don't like most rhyming poetry, 99.9% of the time it sounds forced and awkward, and he thought real poetry -had- to rhyme. I didn't think it was terribly well written. I mean, the thought was nice but the actual poem in question was... not to my taste. But I think I'm a bit of an oddball about some romantic gestures.
by the way all three are under the same thread now http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=212704 thanks for the advice so far
My ex wrote two poems about his feelings for me and how he saw me, and to this day I think they are the most beautiful things that I've ever read.. Anyway, I think you should just let her know the poems are from you. I'm sure she'll appreciate the honesty AND the fact that she inspires you so much.. Any girl would feel special about that. Good luck.
First of all theres not really much in them to give away its me, second of all I want her to eventually figure out that its me writing them, if she figures it out after the first one then so be it I'll just show her the rest in person. I'm not even sure if this is how I'm going to do it, this is just how I'm thinking about doing it.
The poems are sweet but they almost seem a bit much for someone you seem to be just kinda crushing on. If it were me, I would be a bit wierded out but maybe that's because I'm not into the sentimental aspects of life. Does she have any inkling that you like her? Do you have any inkling that she likes you? It all seems a bit intense---something some people tend to steer clear of at the beginning stages of a relationship. Of course, that isn't to be said true for all.
Well we've been friends for years and have grown a lot closer over the past few months, we actually just got back from a trip to amsterdam together along with some other firends. I'm not sure if she has any idea but I'd be surprised if she was totally in the dark. And believe me this is more than a crush, I don't like to throw around the L word so I won't but I haven't felt like this about anyone in a long time if ever.
