This poem is written about a specific someone who I never spoke a word with but that person taught me something. I haven't seen that person in a while so I have preserved that person in my poetry.

Sleeves draping down your shoulders
There's a tiny hollow on your nape
I mirrored your attention
You are the study I aced.
Loose strands that follow my trail
I wonder how I look, when you gaze
One piece apart
I caught your eyes but you caught my maze.
Tell me if I often puzzle upon your mind
Do you reflect on my ways
I know you were amused to see me
Do you still bother to think about those days.
I am curious
But I think I've faded
It will only make it more beautiful
Because it continues if it was never completed.
My universe completes my paradise
You don't have to do it anyways
But I'll always remember those skies
And that invisible floating haze.
I still feel the smell
Though I never smelled anything, but my space
If we would have ever held onto whatever we faced
The fragile rush would have broken,
Leaving us for finding new places.

You make us feel like these two people embraced...even when there was no touch between them, only a relationship imagined.......This kind of love can always play out as we want it to...
no rejection, just projection.

I can still just remember his name and feel what it could have been felt like embraced by him though we only looked at each other from far. Only our eyes were talking. I am glad I could experience something like this.
