'cryptic Notes'

Cryptic notes on dirt stained walls 
She gets to read the beating of your heart 
Instead of feeling it  
The distant cry of unrequited love 
So loud 
We heard it on the other side of town 

You wore it on your sleeve
Proudly displayed 
Never doubting what you felt
Even though she never acknowledged it 
You hoped she would reciprocate 
Until that day you got tired 
Of putting up a brave face

You finally decided to move on
