Wish it was me

I look at you from afar as you talk
Heart skips a beat when you raise your eyes my way
I wish our eyes met and you read what mine say
A thought, that occurred a thousand times before

I look at you from afar sitting relaxed
Makes me restless as you move and adjust in that chair
I wish I was there and you cuddled me in your arms
Something I imagined a thousand times before

I look at you from afar as you stroke your chin
Something melts inside as you wave your hand and smile
I wish I could hold those hands and your fingers entwined mine
A picture, repeated in mind a thousand times before

I look at you from afar as you’re lost in thoughts
I wish it was me filled in your musings
I wish it was me in that heart of yours
Something I dreamt a million times before

I close my eyes to seal these thoughts and imaginations
Our eyes meet and mine twinkle as you take me into your arms
You pull my hair back and hold my face in your hands
while your gentle smile tickles my heart, you lean towards me

I open my eyes and come back to reality
Standing amidst the scattered thoughts and shattered dreams
Broken pieces of the imaginations fly in the air
Knowing he is oblivion to all these, I look at him from afar as vision blurred with tears
