Missing Pair

Been one For a long time Never have one Grown up Secretly needs one Not just having it Opportunity to cherish it Something special Despite ignoring it Bury it deep inside my chest It gets louder and louder Every lovebirds come by I can only dream Smiling to myself Imagining that for me Glancing around As if it is coming to me Right now Foolish me Just a fantasy Costly to maintain Fragile to touch In this modern world Wishing time slows down Actually looking at each other By the eyes Intertwining hands All sorts of good physical embraces Not running around Money collecting Fit schedules to just make time See and go Horrible thing to do For love Especially after all That waiting To make it happen At least they have one I have none I can do is to dream Building my hopes up Ignoring my fears That it does not come true for me Closing my eyes Swinging my legs Waiting for the one to show up Sweeping me Off my feet © Sue Sanzz 2020
