The Day When I Met You

A sultry day and a warm cheer parade Your handshake was incredulous! Greetings of "cheese"! I looked forward to see you next day. I was watching you afar and gave you a mushy smile. But I couldn't help to make things obvious. I slipped, I fell. Yet it was never too hard. A pageant night for the kings and queens! You were sitting front row I saw the look of a Heartbreak Prince. My eyes couldn't stop staring at you close I was hoping to sit next to you so I could blush like a rose. There were many nights I thought about you sitting in the cafeteria. If only I had the guts to speak up and start a conversation in one of those endearing moments, I think I'll score and hit the goal. You were a stranger who I wished to be "mine". But I ended up packing my bags and left Maguindanao without saying goodbye... Heading home I brought one moment with me Your handshake was incredulous! Something I cherished. I am filled with my own "cheese". LeiStrauss2020
