I sit I wait... but for how long?
It just seems like you won’t be there.
A flash of light,
that glimmer of hope.
I look down to see it isn’t you
but someone else.
My smile slowly dies from that brief rush.

The waiting continues but still nothing.
I know you’re busy
It’s perfectly fine.
So suddenly my smile returns
when I almost gave up hope.
We talk for hours but so short it seems
when I sadly have to end it.

I can’t believe my heart skipped a few beats when all we did was
Talk.
