Longing for a connection
With someone I don't quite know
A stranger in the hallway
Planting a seed that may grow
Triple glances exchanged
A nervous shy refrain
I wish to find the words
Bridging gaps and ending the strain
A fleeting conversation
A moment acutely brief
But your laughter left a melody
A captivating sweet relief
I'm reaching out
Across this crowded world
Hoping you might notice me
Break the silence that crawled
A chance encounter
These moments I hope you won't ignore
I'm reaching out
To a future that I'm longing to explore
Your style's a captivating mix
Abstract and bold
A symphony of colors
Modern with a twist of the old
Each word you speak
A perfect chord, a melody to my ears
I'm drawn into your orbit
But it reignites my fears
A slight chance I might overstep
A word that might feel wrong
So the silence feels like static
A song that can't go on for long
I'm reaching out
Across this crowded world
Hoping you might notice me
Break the silence that crawled
A chance encounter
These moments I hope you won't ignore
I'm reaching out
To a future that I'm longing to explore
Maybe it's a foolish dream
A fantasy I hold too deep
But the thought of never taking a chance
Is one I cannot bear
So I'll take a step
And sweep aside the doubt
Hoping you can appreciate that I am
I'm reaching out
Across this crowded galaxy
Hoping you might notice me
Break the silence with ecstasy
A night out under the stars
I hope you'll come back for more
I'm reaching out
To build a future
One you'll want for sure
