Through the Gates

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Walking past
You slowed down
And looked in 
Through the bars
on the Gates-
I caught your eye
as you caught mine
And now I hide.
I want nothing more
To unlock the door
But through the gates
I stare in awe back at you
Aching to touch you
Through nothing more than air
no gates
No bars-
And I fear
   I know
That if I don't shed this self-pity
You'll eventually walk on by.
