She used to look at me that way the way shes now looking at her. She tries to hide her smiles but the corners of her lips and that gleaming sparkle in her eyes betray her lies.
We used to talk all night about everything under the sky, about both of our lives. We’d kiss till our tongues could no longer tell, to which of us they belonged. Now the only time her tongue is twisted and tied is when she talks to her. When did I become obsolete? When did us and we become I and me? So much time seems to have passed, lost in her beautiful eyes a lifetime gone just in that first moment we met. but time, it seems has actually slipped by much to fast, one blink of an eye and its gone in a flash. How do I get it all back?
Now my eternity belongs to her, with her long dark hair and her girlishly good looks. That soulful sound she makes when she opens her mouth. I cant compete, I wouldn’t even know how...? Her voice carries more than words to her ears, as she sits and listens to her sing all the while watching her so intently while she plays. She used to look at me that way. When she looks at me now its never more than a quick glance. Her looks of boredom and dissatisfaction remind me, that for me there is no chance. My time came and went, I’ve used all of what I had. Now she looks at her with hidden smiles and hidden thoughts as she turns back the hands of her clock. My clock isn’t like hers with no hands to turn back or button to reset, My time only goes forward it moves without pause and without rest and my time with her may already be at its end. As I sit here and look at her still in the same way I always have, I know in my heart that now things may never be the same because she used to look at me that way!
Is this too confusing? Does it make any sense? Any feedback is appreciated. Mahalo!
