Poem: Dear Amanda

Dear Amanda,

Next time we will be brave,

Not in solitude, but in telling you…

I think about you,

I wish to know how your green eyes twinkle,

Next time we are at the counter I will ask about you

Next time I will say more than a hello in passing by,

Next time I will ask about you,

Your essence in unforgettable,

 

Dear Amanda,

I whisper thoughts of you to myself,

Not in deepness but in jest,

So I know to brace for next time.

 

I just want you think about me the way I think about you,

I just want to linger on your thoughts like you do mine,

I wish for my words to play chords of delight in your mind,

I want the image of me to bring a smile to your face,

I want your laugh to be caused by me,

I want to be brave enough to speak more than hello,

I just want your eyes to sparkle,

I just want the sound of your voice to happen in more than one place,

If we could just talk,

If we could just speak,

If we could just spend time together,

I promise,

You will smile deeper than you ever have,

I promise,

Your green eyes will twinkle

If I could just be brave enough to speak.
