6000
- Met you in a crowd.
Could have sworn
It was only you and I.
The music was loud
But
Had no bearing
On the sound of you
Dancing across my mind.
If only
You would have saved
That last dance for me.
If only
Such moments
Could be left on repeat.
I didn’t catch your name
And you didn’t pitch
And there were far too many
Butterflies
For me to cross the bridge.
So
There we remained...
...on two opposite sides of the sea.
If only you would have noticed me
Noticing you
Beyond my normal whims.
If only I could have gotten past
The fear
Of being left out on a limb...
...perhaps by now,
Seeds would have taken root.
Instead,
I gape from the valley
As all your mountains move.
