If you don’t see it, one day- be it today, tomorrow, or in the years to come- another man will.


Another man will bring the colours back to her face,
Another man will steal the stars from the sky and place them in her eyes,
Another man will scoop her hand and never let go,
Another man will love her, the way you were supposed to,
Another man will make promises, and keep them,
Another man will stay. Indefinitely.


Before he comes, play your part, stay infinitely,
Before he comes, ask for her carpal tunnel and present the gem,
Before he comes, love her, and make her say, “I do,”
Before he comes, say her name repeatedly until in her heart she hears an echo,
Before he comes, don’t steal stars, but swear to be under them with her and tell no lies,
Before he comes- you know, she knows, that no man could, would and will ever take your place.

— The End —
