We Don't Say Hello

It meant more to me, Than it meant to you.

A few times a week, You seemed so true.

I walk past you often, Watch  you as you go.

Has anyone wondered, we don’t say hello.

I catch you looking at me with a cheeky smile,

Don’t know what you’re thinking, you play like a child.

We look away quickly so no one will know,

Hoping no one has noticed we don’t say hello.

My only exception to the one major rule,

Not knowing what to think, always feeling a fool.

A welcome distraction from what I know,

And nobody’s questioning why we don’t say hello.

Our time was done before it began,

And You always had me in the palm of your hand.

No more looking or touching it’s time for you to know,

I never understood why you didn’t say hello.

But I’ll think of you fondly in years to come,

Your piercing blue eyes,

Your cheeky nice bum.

I’ll stop looking so down, my feelings I don’t show,

I think someone has noticed we never did say hello.

Moved on, long gone, your ghost hangs around,

I see you in different places all around town.

Never to see you again, flown away like the crow,

Can’t say goodbye when we never even said hello.
