WHO WERE YOU? 2
(Written in 1996)
Who could have imagined
That you'd look even more beautiful
Than when I saw you in Junior High School
When we were both about thirteen years old
You were one of the very few then
Who would even give me the time of day
It hurt so much to be so alone
You seemed to sense that
To have pity on me, and spoke to me
Oh, how I wish we could talk now and recollect
You still shine brightly in my mind
And I guess that I should be content with that
But I'd like to soak up and really experience your beauty
It doesn't make it with me, to only have a distant memory of you
Along with a too short, un-fulfilling reunion with you
So I can't help wondering where you are
Pondering what you're doing
In all of your glory
Even though I know I should be able to let go of these thoughts
Oh, how difficult it is to pass each other like ships in the fog
