"After the first hello"

Sitting here staring at the paper,
waiting for the words to come,
something to tell you how I'm feeling
every time I think of you.

And I wonder would you find it silly,
if the mere thought of holding your hand
makes me smile uncontrollably,
as if it were everything.

Many times I've tried to find a way
just to get the message across,
that if I could just hold you for a moment,
it would erase the years of loneliness

And how do you tell someone,
that you will give anything you could
just to feel their lips on your own
after the first hello.
