So Near, Yet So Far

He looks She smiles Same smile Same attire He smiles back Vain hope Does he see her wave? Wishful thinking Waits for more signs Signs of recognition Sadly, there are none But smile still intact Literally frozen His mind thaws Races back Colourful kaleidoscope Loving emotions Cheery laughter Broad grins Naughty comments Screen turns pink Battery dying Recharge- simple But recharging life No simple thing Smile continues to enchant Screen turns black Smile vanishes Dead! More than battery Still she lives So near, yet so far.
