Staying Away for Love
Recently was the 20th anniversary of the last time I saw you. I know the place, the time— a Saturday, and I was shaking, hiding and stepping outside so you wouldn't see me. When I was ready, you were gone.
What would I have said? Hello, how are you? I am fine, thank you. Building a wall with words to avoid physical contact? To stop the temptation and not act on instincts.
Maybe I hurt you in ways I will never understand. I am sorry for that. I was attracted to you. I couldn't do it anymore. I couldn't be the one.
Last time I looked up your name, it seemed you had found someone who could be the one I wasn't.
Deep in my heart I wish you are happy. You didn't see me that day, I know. All possibilities left for other people.
Have a good love, Yours
