LYRIC FOR SALE

By BRIX

I see you and wonder if you see me.
I try to catch your eye. Is there still a glimmer?
Are we where we are meant to be?
The choices we have made – our hopes a little dimmer.

My heart jumps and my breath held.
When I see your familiar silhouette.
To open the door to where my thoughts of you have dwelled.
How I wish I could change things since we met.

I see you smile and wonder if you are happy and content.
It appears you have your family again.
Are you getting all you deserve or do you need to vent?
Do you get what I want for you or do you abstain.

Am I crazy for still hoping?
Do you have all you have ever wanted?
Day to day I feel as if I am just coping.
My thoughts and dreams are still haunted.

Our smiles are seen on the outside.
Days come and go
But only you and I know what is inside.
What is felt can never show.

Even after months with no contact.
I see you and I begin to think.
How much longer can I continue this act.
Do we still have that undeniable link?

Will anything ever evolve from what we are now?
Will it continue to be just “hi how are you?”
Or someday what we want to feel and need be allowed.
Until I know what is real and you give me a clue.

My arms are not empty, but my heart doesn’t feel
I too am tired of being alone.
But what I have now it isn’t real.
The one who has my heart has known.

I wish I could feel you reach for me to know you are still there.
Until then I will continue to live this life not alone but still lonely.
I wish we were able to see each other be what we both need. This is my prayer.
No one knows what God has instore. Until then I am my one and only
