When I looked into your eyes
I melted in your gaze
When our hands intertwined
My heart leaped for joy
When we were together
Nothing mattered anymore
When you wanted to be with me
My heart exclaimed victory
So quick this time seemed
Yet we were together so long
For the past months
I had something to look forward to
On that one average day
The fireworks flew
We laughed and we blushed
We walked until there was nowhere to go
Until the sun departed
We held each other close as the hours slipped by
It would appear that time is never on our side
It never is
It is goodbye
But not for long
I linger in that last embrace
Hoping that time would slow
Alas those headlights are in view
I gaze into those eyes
“Goodbye, sleep well”
Our lips meet briefly
And in that last second
I know
She is perfect
