While maybe not directly fitting an ode format, these are things people can submit because talking to people in person sometimes isn't possible.

An ode to the one person I could never bring myself to talk truly to:

"Every moment those two on screen shared,

Looking softly at another in a way friends don't,

All I could see was us, potentially.

Because I could give you that look all day.

I don't care if you're wearing no makeup,

And paint stained shirt,

Or with your hair pulled back in a crazy configuration,

I would still be right by your side.

Because I fall for you again and again, each time I see you."
