Even still
No matter how long it’s been
Or how much I’ve grown
There stands a man
Somewhere unknown
Muddy locks of hair
Soft lips, sharp features
A soft golden stare
He stands with confidence
There’s love for him in me
And I in him
A love deep inside
He could have been mine
He should have been mine
But not in this life
Not this time
He was not meant for me
I am not meant for him
But still when our eyes meet-
And rarely they meet
We both know how the other felt
And all that we could be
There’s a spark that ever dies
Brighter than sun herself
But must remain inside
For there’s a man
With muddy rivers of hair
And beautiful brown eyes
Somewhere in the world
Who will never be mine.
