Crush On Encounters Poem by Seli SusuAtiase

There is something that draws the soul out to you
There is a lack of fuel if your presence is not felt
The minutes sluggishly draw past, wondering where you are and what you do
The heart beats in expectation when you walk by
when you are heard talking to someone else
Waiting for the hope you will pass by an entrance where you can bee seen
And in a fair chance, greetings can be passed.
The day goes smoother having had a small encounter – too rare not to cherish

It could be a passing fancy but could it mean something to you too?
Could two feelings be mutually exchanged without a word been said?
Could there be more passing encounters that could grow into
Fleeting hours of encounters?

The mind searches for ways to endear small encounters into bigger ones
Questions race through the mind to soak in more about you
Your privacy eludes the wish to know you
Leaving this crush for you to eat up the soul.
