Standing in Silence

She stands there silent.
A piece of hair falls in her face.
Fingers move swiftly-
Tuck stray hair behind her ear.
Linger a little.
Drift to cheek,
Brush lightly-
Dream.
Trace jawline and
Soft contours-
Play a little,
Linger some more.
Wind hand round neck and
Draw head close.
A kiss so near,
Yet far.
A dream...
