Claire It's been awhile since I've had that, instant connection with someone. I don't necessarily mean love at first sight, but it was an undeniable attraction towards you. Who were you though? I remember your smile, your voice, and the genuine welcome of hello. There was something about how you held yourself, something that made you different. I know you now, but I want to know more. Every answer you give every word you say sounds like, a bittersweet melody, because the more I'm attracted, the harder I know it'll be once you move. Thing is, you don't need me, maybe that's why I'm so drawn. It's been awhile since someone's been this interested in me. I mean the kind of interested where you start the conversation out of nowhere about things others wouldn't care for. With you it's conversation, not just talk. It's understanding, not a mindless chatter box. Before too long, I can't fight the urge. I want to hug you. And I don't mean the kind of hugs friends give, I mean the tight, swaying shit. The kind that when you receive one, you don't want it to stop. There you are, I see you now, I'll wait until the time is right, the package is almost here for you, til then I'll try and keep it in. In comes the arrangement as I stand as if ignored. Waiting for what was expected as a verbal thanks, turned into something more. Instantaneous. Sway inducing. Warmth to my heart Running hug. If only today wasn't your last day, I think my heart just dropped. Just goes to show that love comes in many forms, not always is it couple romance. Because in this one stranger, I was reminded of love. I'll miss you Claire
