lackluster dreamings

silent

secret glances,

shy smiles.

blushing cheeks,

turn away.

waving hands,

murmured "hello"s.

daydreaming,

close your eyes.

thinking,

pretending,

wishing,

hoping.

playful banter,

laughing aloud.

smiling later,

remembering.

wanting,

longing,

needing,

loving.

dreams of 

laughing,

holding,

kissing.

wake up 

happy,

and then

recall.

filled with sadness,

once again,

and once more

you are back to:

wishing,

hoping,

loving,

silent.
