Duet In Harmony Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Wanting it more to stay.
This feeling I have and prayed for.
If it should leave,
My needs would feed
Off misery
And pain I made.

Escapade days.
This is one I would save.
Caught in between...
A love I daydream,
And past thoughts I can not free
From me.

Who is that one in a crowd?
That one that looks at me now!
With a smile that seems just for me,
And a nod or two.

Who is that one in a crowd?
That one that looks at me now!
With a smile that seems just for me,
And a nod or two.
Not knowing one nod would do!

Sitting with thoughts.
My heart with memories brought.
To give me reason to sigh...
And wonder why,
I deny I'm all alone!

If only...
You were with me,
To see the way I can be.
Wishing...
More for romance.
And just once more chance...
To duet in harmony,
When greeted!
