I look across the empty space,
I see you standing, cold as a stone,
not even a small chance for a short embrace,
why, your distance chills me to the bone.
You do not notice, you do not turn,
I watch your every move, & begin to shake,
I worry that if your eyes were to look, my cheeks would burn,
you turn away, & I am shunned, my mask falters, my heart begins to break.

Wow, powerful . Great work Aiko !

wow, this short poem is impacting!
For me, this brings the emotions of yearning for lost love, or even for forbidden love, and aptly describes one's soul as we go through the process.
