We Passed It By ...

What Is Love?
Being able to open up
Our feelings.
To one another.
Knowing we will not judge.
We Passed It By

We can be miles apart
Yet feeling we are
In the same Room,
Side by Side,
Smiling,
Laughing,
Holding,
Touching,
We Passed It By

We can disagree and,
Still care about the
Others Feelings,
Never wanting to
Hurt the other
We Passed It By

We can laugh,
Feeling each others
Happiness,
Bring Happiness
To our hearts,
We Passed It By

We can be apart,
Knowing that others are Interested in us,
Yet we have no
Interest in them that way,
We Passed It By

We waited too long,
To find out
That this is love
We Passed It By

Not paying attention to our Inner feelings,
We never took the risk,
Because of past risk that Caused pain and hurt,
We Passed It By

We never found out
How good we were
For each other,
So now were left alone, Wondering,
What we lost,
We Passed It By
