Mental Note For Them

Have you ever downloaded a photo of "them" just so you could be in the presence of their smile? As if that photo would reply I love you, how I miss you, or I'm just thinking of you. "Them" not even aware of how complicated their smile has been for you, wishing their love upon you. If only they could truly see with their eyes, while you are glaring back, the complete and total love and affection that your eyes has too offer "them". They don't get too see, you as you smiling back, asking yourself if I send them a response, will they quickly answer back? So then you decide not too send this correspondence but then fortunately, but unfortunately you receive one, not the one you desired or expected. Their response a quick, how are you, or what you up too, but never the words spoken, simply saying I love you. So you make a note too self,  just too play the part, role of being their friend, all the while wishing that they were more, more like your man. A mental note for all of "them".
