Sweet Nothings

There you are

So close, but so far

My hand reaches out

But as if you are a ghost

Can grasp nothing.

The feeling is building

It reminds me of spring

Full of hope and promise

A new life just around the corner

Just behind the cloud

Waiting to make way for the sun to shine

And you to come out and finally tell me that

What I’ve been feeling is real

And that you feel it, too.

For in my dreams you come to me and say “I think I may love you”

And I say, “I didn’t realize it, but my whole life, I think I have always loved you, too.”
