For one awkward moment,
I stared into those eyes
Looking for a glimpse,
A spark, a light,
A hope.

I stared into those eyes
With longing and passion
With patience and keen

I searched deep within
For a sense of belonging
For a graze of adore
For a sparkle of love
For anything

All I saw was nothing
As I looked away
Feeling the crush in my heart
"You let it happen again", I told myself
You fell for someone
Who doesn't feel the same way.

"You did it again,
You *******",
I told myself.
Masking the pain, the sound of my shattered heart,
The length of my hope and the future of us.
Watching it all tumble down.

"You *******".
