Lingering emotions

Lingering emotions, restless thoughts,
Old memories haunting yet soft.
Fleeting time grasped in moments,
Echoes swirl of reckless promises.
Lingering emotions, empty stares,
Hollow heart , and soft regret 
Staring at the ceiling there I sat , 
Hinting a regret of what could've been said
Lingering emotions, bittersweet disguise 
Those deceiving eyes breathtaking lies
Every glance a hint ,a dare,yet
I am left wondering lost in the air 
Lingering emotions unsaid questions 
Endless possibilities questioning doubts
His words a web , an endless haze
He looks my way yet never stares.
Lingering emotions, a sweet passion,
Coffee eyes and a mesmerizing face.
A hope in his eyes, yet longing in mine 
Glistening eyes as if stars intertwined.
Sugar spun words and an unsaid feeling 
Lingering emotions and reckless promise
