A sunny day it was to me
expectations high
I stretched far out and yes, did see
a train
     bringing me...my guy

Then there you stood,
i just adored
     the sight of you so close
But, one look: no bags, no clothes
no intentions, nothing good

You looked into my eyes,
me longing for a hug
if it weren't for the coldness,
      guarding your eyes,
          saying NO,
I might have tried...

Then there we were,
      you talking your talk,
      I crying my tears

Now, still:
I cry,
   I talk
But you...
     want silence

I feel the longing in your words.
Well done. Chris

This is terribly melancholic.
Great write.
Hope this isn't about your situation ... too sad!
Love, Margherita
