Eyes meet across the room<\/p>\n
Irises contracting in the light of fate<\/p>\n
In one glance you lifted my gloom<\/p>\n
And relieved my shoulders of all that weight<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Awkward hello<\/p>\n
A shy wave<\/p>\n
Conversations start to flow<\/p>\n
To your words, I became a slave<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Say goodbye for tonight<\/p>\n
\u201cBe here next week if you can\u201d<\/p>\n
For farewell I did recite<\/p>\n
Bye for now, question mark man<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Meet again, we did<\/p>\n
Closer this time<\/p>\n
Butterflies I could not rid<\/p>\n
But, loving him would be a crime<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And I was the criminal<\/p>\n
Arrested by my heart<\/p>\n
A cage completely fictional<\/p>\n
But he was such a work of art<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Send me a text<\/p>\n
We\u2019ll talk, that\u2019s the plan<\/p>\n
What\u2019ll come next<\/p>\n
That\u2019s up to question mark man<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Turns out we are strangers<\/p>\n
But we own the same soul<\/p>\n
Our hearts are old friends<\/p>\n
Who bear equal burden<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One date later<\/p>\n
We were quite smitten<\/p>\n
But chaos bloomed<\/p>\n
Nothing made sense<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Another girl<\/p>\n
One hard choice<\/p>\n
Just stay friends<\/p>\n
But for how long?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The passion died<\/p>\n
Friendship faded<\/p>\n
Your words cut me<\/p>\n
I knew we were broken<\/p>\n
But I was ok<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Goodbye for now<\/p>\n
Meet again if we can<\/p>\n
We got lost somehow<\/p>\n
But I\u2019ll never forget you question mark man<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
