Stolen Words

You stood there
only sand between us
The path was clear
our way was blocked
Knowing what to say
no way to say it
Drawing breath
Step towards me
Words turn to silent whisper
"I like you"...
Now I sit here
whole oceans between
The way is clear
our path is blocked
Knowing what to say
no way to say it
Poising hands
start to write
Words turn back to thought
"I love you"...
