Poets are those who love,--who feel great truths, And tell them.

The Person I'll Never Know

by Emily

I never expected to want to stay here, so far from home. 
But in those short moments when we talk, I don't feel so alone. 
It's probably not meant to be, only a dream. 
I'm scared I'll wake up and won't remember the eyes 
that tell stories and a smile that never lies. 
But that's all I'm allowed to feel.
I wonder what it would be like to touch you, 
See if you're real. 
We'll separate soon, and I'll cry, 
Because the person I wanted to know, 
Will have to say goodbye.
