She was in love with him
Had been for years
But she knew she didn’t have a chance
It was a hopelessly impossible love
Sometimes late at night though
He would text her and “talk” for hours
He was miles away though
And now he found someone else
She was happy for him, truly
But she still had dreams at night
Of being in his arms held tight
And he grabs her face oh so gently
He kisses her for the first time
It is everything she thought it would be
But morning always comes
With a new day without him
And she still silently hopes
Someday it could be her with him

A lovely poem. The wistfulness is striking.
Thank you so much!
A pleasure
