First I would simply watch,
from a distance,
into the eyes,
that snagged my own
Four seasons time,
rode right by,
and then one more,
just for good measure
We once said hello,
then conversation brewed,
your name in my mind,
originally distant,
now close
We talked,
then we joked,
we smiled,
then we laughed
Friends were all we were,
though the spark seemed there,
our life would carry on,
as our age stood,
sturdy at the unlucky number
Classes were split,
the year departed,
and we went our separate ways,
to our friends to spend the summer
The warmth soon ended,
and education was again required,
our classes together were not as often,
yet I thrived to see you again
My friend had told me,
once hiking a mountain,
that you viewed in me,
what I viewed in you
But now you just ignore me.
