Who are You?

When I see you
Just passing by
I wonder

Who are you?

Though your eyes may not be deep
Like the deepest sea
They are warm
Playful
Childish
Gentle
I see into them
They are shining
Shimmering
Hopeful

Who are you?

Are you waiting?
Waiting for the right person to come along?
To change your life?
To mark all your favorite memories?
"I was here."
Could I be that person?

Who are you?

If I should approach you,
Would you wave me away
Like countless others?
Would you listen?
Understand?
Hold my hand?
Through the dark nights?
The cold winters and hard times?

Who are you?

Innocent.
Pure.
Whole.
On the outside.
I often wonder,
Would you let me in?

Tell me your darkest secrets.
I'll share my deepest fears.
All the reasons you shouldn't love me.
Because I know you always will...
Will you?

Who are you?

I'll tell you who I am.
Just
A
Wandering
Spirit.

Wanting to love you...
But not knowing how.
