Glances across a busy room
Careful not to watch
Close enough to share a breath
But careful not to touch

Treasuring moments that don't exist
Waiting on the day they might
Foolishly keeping them as a safe thought
Through day and lonely night

Vigilant watcher, never to get close
A stranger and a friend

Loving from a distance
with tenderness that never ends
my mind gettin all wistfull, as happens all too often.

comments very much appreciated, but please, be gentle, somehow, my writings are much more personal than drawings.

cheers folks.

whats really ironic about this piece, is i wrote it, not with someone in mind, but with two people on my mind. how fickle am I?!

also, i should mention, thuis erally isnt my best work in poems. sadly my best works are scribbled on scraps of paper which quickly dissapear. perhaps someone has a colection somewhere???? spooky
