I remember the moment my eyes caught a glimpse,
Of a colorful smile in a monochromatic world of mine.
I remember how your eyes were tired,
But your face lit up and your lips said otherwise.

I remember the moment your hand brushed against mine,
It’s as if your world collided with mine for a split second,
And I wanted to stop time.

Happy wasn’t even a word I could best describe,
The feeling I had ever since you came into my life.
I felt a spark of hope in the darkness of my night,
A ray of sunshine in a storm that gave fright.

You brought light in the darkest parts of my mind,
You were the stars that lit up beside the shining moonlight.
You were the calm before the storm,
The first leaf that falls in an autumn day.

But I saw how your eyes glistened under the moonlight,
Praying that someone someday might love you more than I.
I never thought a heart could easily break,
That even a touch so fragile can shatter it

Maybe love wasn’t for me, and I wasn’t for you.
Maybe fate entangled our paths, but I was never meant for you.
