I guarded my heart against you,
A somber shell exposed.
I hoped you'd never notice,
The yearning heart I hold.
Your eyes caught mine like diamonds,
Which catch the searing sun.
Burning hope within me,
A new dream had begun.
Others saw the starting,
Of a romance strong and true.
They all saw the beginning,
All others except for you.
We pass in small spaces,
Forced to make believe we're fine.
I now know that smile,
And I know it was never mine.
