Unspoken Words

Saw you from across the room
And couldn't look away
Its been so long
Since anyone has made me feel this way
I don't even know your name
But I'm falling fast
You look at me and smile
Oh god! I cant breathe
We've never even met
And look what you are doing to me
No one makes a move
Because our stolen glances say it all
We continue on this way for hours
Never speaking, never knowing if we'll ever meet again
When the time comes for you to leave
In a room full of people you catch my eye
And smile one last time
Then you softly whisper goodbye
As you leave I want so badly to run after you
But I believe that if it's meant to be
That one day we'll meet again
If not then I'll always have tonight
A night of unspoken words
