Glance

It was his eyes that started it all…

For a second, I saw them

Bizarre it was and I liked it

Sitting alone on a white bench

Facing a path with nothing but silence

I then came, dumbfounded

My glance met his

It was different.

Every jiffy was sweet.

I passed by him.

Ignoring the thought that I was tickled,

I put a dot for that moment

But time allowed him to follow

He looked intently as I never expected it

I gave it a thought

But I just couldn’t stare at him

Patience was with him

But it was not too long

He saw and looked at another

I pushed my belief that it was okay

It was really, time helped us part

Now is harder.

We’re on the same tile once more

Everything was ordinary

Except that I am learning to look at him

The way he does to me before

But his eyes, his deep sight, his glance, his stare

They were not for me anymore.

Our glances just wouldn’t meet.

Then maybe, I’ll have to accept it.

I'll close my eyes for him

when my sky turns orange

hope it'll be soon

but not tomorrow

I just want to blink for the moment.
