Poem
If….. If we passed on the street, would you notice me, or would you just keep walking past? Would you turn to look at me walking away or would you just keep walking? If you saw me in a crowded café, sitting alone, writing in deep thought, would wonder where it was you saw before? If there was only one open seat left in the cafe’ and it was at my table, would you risk asking me if the seat was taken, or would you stand alone near the wall waiting for a table to open? If after you sat with me, would our eyes meet, would I feel the soft warmness in your glare, or would you just look past as if I wasn’t even there? If you sat next to me on a bus or the subway, would know it was me sitting next to you, could you feel the warmth of me and want it to surround you during the cold winters? If you saw a warm glow while you walked your dog in the park as sunset began to fall, would you seek it out just to find the glow was coming from me and that it was starting to fade? If you did follow and find the glow and discovered that it came from me, would you try to talk to me, or would you just let me walk away again, watching the glow slowly fade? If we crossed paths in the mall, would you wonder where it was that you knew me from or ignore that nagging feeling of familiarity and just keep moving? If we passed each other again would you get that same nagging feeling again, would you remember what we once had so long ago, or would you just bury it deep inside like you once did? If you do remember, would you recognize the feeling of safety in that warm glow that came from my heart? If you did remember, would you see that, that the fire never went out and it is still burning within, would you want it back again, or would just push it away again the way you did so long ago? If we were in a crowded nightclub, would you be drawn to the glow that only you could see, would you embrace it like you once did and hold it dear to your heart, embrace it like you once did? If you do hold it dear to your heart once more, would you remember how much it meant to us, and how good it felt to have two hearts as one again, if you do, would it be enough? If Only! Author? Some One You May Know!
