One
2 longing hearts.
2 broken homes.
10 casualties;
All 5 each their own.
16 smiles;
4 of them, today.
20 tears fallen,
Only 18 wiped away.
17 wishes.
17 wishful thoughts.
34 self-crushed hopes,
And 34 "stomachs-in-knots".
12 years spent adoring each other,
Twice that many nights,
2 risks would be all it took
For this 1 love to take flight.
1 white lie.
3 chimes tolled.
2 lives were changed
As 1 string was pulled.
2 eyes darted
As the other 2 stared,
And both lives were fixed
When 1 kiss, they shared.
one two three
