I'm saying more than you

would ever try to tell me
The best part of my day:


                         "Hey."


                        
                                                    "Hi."
I would mark my calendar
today
for a chance to see you again
10 years from now.
What I unknowingly wanted,
at the time,

was our fingers intertwined,
your cheeks pressing against mine, and
your presence surrounding me.
Your warm breath on my neck as you fell asleep with my torso wrapped in your arms.
Knowing we wouldn't work




                          made me want you more.
you were divine
but
you couldn't be
mine
I used to crave
your attention.

Now I hope
you leave before
anyone sees us together.
