Blue Eyes

“I have a friend who might be able to fulfill your dream”....
that’s when it all began

I had a chance to meet you. While I was in town for the weekend because of work. But I allowed my fears to engulf the possibility that you may be different.
So I left.

Before I knew it the texts turned into phone calls, the phone calls into FaceTime and FaceTime into longing.

Within a month I found myself desperately pleading to see you.
To hold you
To be yours
....
Then you left.
You got the ‘call’ that you had to answer.

You got on that plan and flew 16 hours... 7,807 miles away from ME..
 I knew I would always regret not staying

Now you’re gone and I’m irrelevant, I’m nothing more than a woman who was almost perfect.

Yet I find myself missing you
even though I’ve never met you.
Longing for your touch
even though I’ve never had it.
Craving your kiss
as if they were ever mine to crave.

Here I lie
Selfishly hoping you will
Come home
Come back to Texas
Come back to me.

Goodbye my Blue Eyes
