I watched you from afar…..

I read your life
Your daily ramblings of what has been
And hopes for what is to come

I smile when you’re happy
When you win a tourney
Or when you had a good ball game

I flinch at your longing
For tenderness and intimacy
For someone to touch and to hold near

I shed a tear when you’re sad
When you reminisce on your heartaches
And you feel the pain again.

I laugh when you are cheerful
When you look at life with a smile
Inspite of your downfalls.

I embrace your life like my own
I feel all those things you feel
I want to touch you and hold you near

But time is not on my side
So all I can do is just
Watch you from afar…..

I feel like this entry is just spot on on why I continue to blog after all these years at least with regards to the unrequited affection and the feeling of incompleteness.

I know that the post is dated, but still. It takes me way back.
