Hello

I had to say something,
you were standing right there.
I had to do something..
For if I didn't I would look like I didn't care.

So, "Hello." I said.
And you returned it with a smile.
I could not see it,
but I would in a while.

It took me weeks to get to know,
all the things about you.
For days I seemed so lost..
Lost in what I thought was a pointless cost.

I tried to get to know you,
but what was inside you wouldn't share.
I tried to break down your wall,
but that you couldn't bare.

Now as I say goodbye,
Your eyes seem to finally open,
Your heart seems to mend,
But I wasn't the one that mended all the loose ends.
