What I Never Had

7 1 1
                                    

Footfalls behind me

That leave no marks on the ground

Alert me to someone's presence.

Somehow, 

Although I've never known it,

I know to whom the steps belong.

I stop

And so do the steps.


Without looking around, 

I smile sadly, bitterly, wistfully,

Knowing what I've never had

And wanting it all the same,

And say softly,

"Hello, 

Love."


I hope you enjoyed it! :) Much love, Beau_Ciel <3
