354 Words
Him: I walk through the hall.
Her: Walking in a place.
Him: My hand against the wall.
Her: There I saw your face.
Both: People pass me through...
Him: It's like they have no clue.
Her: No one notices my eyes just stick on you.
*A boy is walking by...
*Confused one is walking by...
Him: Why won't you care to say "hi"?
Her: Ambivalent of saying hi.
Him: Can't you see me here?
Her: Your presence is very clear.
Him: I feel far even when you're near.
Her: Yet don't know what to do if you're so near.
Him: Can you feel me?
Her: I can feel you.
Him: Can you see me?
Her: I can see you.
Him: Cant you sense that I am here.
Her: I just sense this feeling of fear.
Him: Do you feel the cold air?
Her: That sends a puff of cold air.
Him: Gripping through a thin white sheet,
Her: Standing on my feet,
Him: Hearing noises from stomping feet,
Her: Voices singing songs written on a sheet,
Both: Over the crowd, I see you.
Both: Seeing me, seeing you.
Him: Though, it was just thought I wanted it to be true.
Her: Wonderful thought that makes me feel blue.
Both: Our ways crossed, our eyes met.
Him: It was an emptiness I saw in your vision, yet.
Her: Sadness on my eyes I will never forget.
Him: There's a faraway look in your eyes, I see.
Her: I diverted my attention for you not to see.
Him: But, I know you're not looking at me.
Her: So that these feelings for you would just be a mystery.
Him: The only thing I can see,
Her: The only thing I did was stupidity,
Him: Is your back, facing in front of me.
Her: I refrained facing that person crazily.
Him: It hurts to know I can't be...
Her: It hurts that in reality...
Him: The one who'll hold you endlessly.
Her: Can't be the one through infinity.
Him: I'll be a ghost lingering around,
Places nowhere to be found.
Her: Aesthetic memory lingering around,
From places nowhere to be found.
Him: Can't you feel the cold air?
Her: I feel the cold air.
Him: Enveloping while you sleep?
Her: Enveloping while I'm asleep.
Him: I guess I'm just a souvenir you can't keep.
Her: A special trove I will always keep.
