If only

Every time I speak to you,
I stop breathing for a while.
I try to soak you, to feel your potency.
You may find it flattery, but for me it's always you.
The melody in your spirited voice,
the much desired respite from the lustful crowd.
I am at peace when I shed my flirtatious layers.
Yes I have grown over the years,
but couldn't get over you.

Now that you are certified, can you define the feelings I have for you.
It's more eternal than I can ever convey.
It's more intense than you can ever ascertain.

If we ever meet, I wish to just hug you,
nothing more.
For our hearts will hear what the words couldn't convey.
Your elusiveness and my expectant patience, nothing has changed.
I wish I can process.
I hope you can sense, what I still hold for you all these years.
If only
