Hello

I see you
sitting across the room.
Alone, sipping you coffee,
talking on the cell phone.

Who are you?
I look at you from
the corners of my eyes,
I catch your secret glances.
I catch your subdued smile.

You look so simple
and yet so elegant.
There’s something special
abut you, I cannot tell what.
You have sort of captivated me
and I’m desiring to know who you are.

Are you telling your friend
what’s happening here now –
we are stealing glances,
both wanting to say hello
but do not know how.

Don’t leave soon.
I will wait to see if you are real
and will be happy hearing my hello.
Don't leave soon, next time
you are trying to steal a glance
I will look into your eyes.
