'Hi'
I wasn't too sure if that was the right word to say
Its been so long
So long since I talked to you
Long enough for me to have moved on

Your back is to me
And I thought that you changed
You were no longer the lanky-awkward boy I met 8 years ago
You stood a firm stance
Confident
And so...out there

'Hi'
Was that the right greeting?
I thought you changed
You were no longer busy with a book
But busy looking out, looking for someone

I thought you changed
Different
Unfamiliar
Unrecognizable
But I thought, there is so much more to what I see behind

Would you have the same smile?
The same warm-feeling?
The same light in your eyes?
Would you be able to recognize me?
Its been so long

'Hi'
Was that the right one?
As my legs pushed me to you
You whipped your head to my direction
A huge smile crept your face

'Hi' was all I said.
