today I passed by you
our shoulders almost touched
as your eyes diverted
in intense conversation
your emotion-filled words
floated in the evening air
did you see me?
quickly my feet reached the corner
heart pounding yet turning
to see your form fading
should I say hello?
such intimate friends
I'd seen your tears
you'd felt my heart
should I run?
a lingering glance
heart beating louder
unmovable feet stuck in the past
the silent years forming
a veiled wall between us
one simple hello
could have cascaded
the veil--the wall--
but today I passed by you
