Of Mights and Nevers

How can I let you know
that I content myself
to dreams and coincidences?
Couldn't help but stare at you from afar
through a colorful stained
glass window
Colors that hide her face
who sits beside you.

I could see your smile at a blink --
when I close my eyes
and remember.
But it wasn't given to me;
instead to the one
that made you laugh.
Then, with eyes tight shut,
I'll pretend it was made mine.

In nights of uncoming slumber
a vision cmoe to me:
I,
in your arms,
warmth I feigned to feel
as you looked upon me
tenderly
And a world of unspoken words
as I touched your face.

In sunny days of whenever
are only dark clouds to me
As these remind me
of the loneliness
outside my dreams.
you couldn't sit long
to look out that colored window
From where I only see you
for I know you,
who loved to fly free

A bond of requited
friendship and love
I know I cannot ask
from a heart that is
already taken
But this I would
request of you:
Share a smile with me
or place a caring hand
on my shoulder
