The sudden shift of your head to avoid me

The effort to not look up even though you knew I was there

The noise you create to drown out my stories about you

I know. I know.

I apologise for not getting the hint right away.

I got happy and thought otherwise.

I’ll slowly inch my way to the door now

And cast a final longing gaze,

Stay healthy and happy, my MVP.

You are inside me but you are not really in.

I am clenching around you but I am not really close.

Such a paradox.

I long for warm hugs on rainy nights

I long for good conversations on sunny days

I long for you in a world that’s tough on us

I long for you in a time that isn’t yet for us

I long for us.

I saw you

I saw you wait

I saw you stared

I saw you walked by

I saw you dropped your shoulders and sighed

I wish you could have seen me staring at you too.
