Eyes meet across the room

Irises contracting in the light of fate

In one glance you lifted my gloom

And relieved my shoulders of all that weight

 

Awkward hello

A shy wave

Conversations start to flow

To your words, I became a slave

 

Say goodbye for tonight

“Be here next week if you can”

For farewell I did recite

Bye for now, question mark man

 

Meet again, we did

Closer this time

Butterflies I could not rid

But, loving him would be a crime

 

And I was the criminal

Arrested by my heart

A cage completely fictional

But he was such a work of art

 

Send me a text

We’ll talk, that’s the plan

What’ll come next

That’s up to question mark man

 

Turns out we are strangers

But we own the same soul

Our hearts are old friends

Who bear equal burden

 

One date later

We were quite smitten

But chaos bloomed

Nothing made sense

 

Another girl

One hard choice

Just stay friends

But for how long?

 

The passion died

Friendship faded

Your words cut me

I knew we were broken

But I was ok

 

Goodbye for now

Meet again if we can

We got lost somehow

But I’ll never forget you question mark man
