Bits and Pieces

A Part of Her

Every day
She sits in the corner
Lip bitten
Not knowing what to say
Her shyness palpable
Everyday
A part of her aches
Aches to reach out
Aches to touch
Everyday
A part of her
Dares to wonder
His thoughts
Dares to imagine
His touch
Everyday
She sits in the corner
Any corner
Any shadow
A tight rein
Holding desperately
Tightly
Possessively
To the aching
The wondering
The daring to imagine
Holding tight
Not sure if she should
Not sure if she could
Give it a go.

Standing in the corner
Standing in the shadows
She watches him intently
Willing him to look up
Willing him to smile
Willing him to notice
If only for a few minutes.
