What Could Be.......

I sit alone eating my bread, and see you alone too and think in my head;

“Why not ask if he’d like to sit down?”  He’ll probably look at me like some kind of clown!”

He looks lonely too, why not give it a try?” He’s probably just not that kind of guy.”  

I’m the kind of girl who doesn’t enjoy eating alone.  Perhaps he’d like to join me for an ice cream cone?”  I wait and wait, until it’s too late!  He’s packing his bag and he’s headed straight for the door, he walks by me and takes a double take.

 I look behind my shoulder and think of what could’ve been.  How we might have had a house, a canoe, and maybe some children.  Then he walks out the door with the wind on his cheek, I watch him blow away like a soft melody……….

*I wrote this to express the depth of the longing for a relationship.  We’ve all been there.  So lonely, you want so badly to engage that stranger! Then we find a lack of courage to make our dreams come true….. Boy, can I dream though!*
