"A Polite Hello"

@Uootem

During these past many years
Our lives have rarely crossed, our eyes have rarely met,
Only on occasion have I been transfixed by their sparkle.
Our lips have never shared those kisses that used to affect me so,
Only from time to time a polite "hello", "How've ya been"
And yet my love for you I could never forget,
Your eyes, your kiss, your words and ways I miss.

I wait in suspended anticipation until the day we meet again,
for that all too brief encounter I've grown so accustomed to.
I will dare not reveal just how much I love you,
Only with a smile on my face you I will greet,
The love I have for you
cannot be betrayed with even a single clue.

We have shared so many things in those long past days,
Confessing our love and giving was our ways,
Still those feelings hold steady inside me,
We could love each other this I know.
We could be happy together... I would make sure of it.

So I keep the dream alive, hope
Someday you will be completely mine,
Just as I am already yours.
And we will have each other to have and to hold,
Until then in the past my mind seeks comfort,
Sharing so many words... emotions with only me.

So when we meet next time
I ask only one thing of you,
Reach inside yourself someplace and
Somehow love me with all your heart,
Then speak those words I long for,
Do this my love,
and the feelings we knew will be once more!
