All these years


I finally found her
After all these years

The girl whose simplicity stole my heart
She used to come to my store
With her guy

There was something about her
Unassuming, yet so fetching
Never could I linger my vision
Nor could I ever express my feelings
We barely exchanged a word 
I knew, she was taken

Although she addressed me in reverence
Over the years 
It grew beyond liking

She was unlike countless women I had slept
Her chaste vulnerability 
Made me restless

I missed her silently when she left
She was the one I could never forget

And when destiny reconnected us
I mustered courage 
To convey, what I felt

She smiled and said
You are late

I still see her
I still feel her
After all these years.
