On my first sight of you,
You were nothing special.
Yet as we exchanged friendly words,
A swarm of butterflies tingled my core.
You came closer; I was star-stunned.
That’s my first memory of us.
On a second thought, you were a half gentleman.
Kind of a good boy, sort of a daredevil lover.
Time passed us by, and we’re still on fire.
Never a dull moment with you, my lovebird.
You we’re really worth loving for.
That’s the best season of my life.
On our third year, you seemed tough.
All I see was you blushing mad-red,
Heated debates and intended harsh bluff.
No kind of apologies calmed us down.
You raged; And I walked out of your life.
That’s my worst decision I’ve ever made.
On my fortieth birthday, I saw you in a corner,
Whiffing lovely daffodils and holding chocolate bars in hands.
I wonder to whom you’ll offer your love, again?
My heart is hoping, and longing still
I wish I didn’t go.
I wish I didn’t left.
For a second, you noticed me; I smiled back.
And for a sudden, his grandkids rushed unto him.
And for the last revelation, he and his wife greeted me with a kiss.
My heart is broken, but enlightened.
That’s my greatest regret.
Well,
Feelings may change;
Memories may fade;
Love may die;
But you will never ever be unknown to me.
