Some people you meet just once, but in your heart they stay,
While others, every time you see, seem strangers day by day.

Some take, and others leave behind, a part or piece of you,
And some, with fleeting hours shared, leave memories deep and true.

Some friendships only bring you pain, though brief they seem to last,
And others, though just days apart, feel like the world has passed.

For things, some people sell their souls, without a second thought,
And some would trade away their years for moments dearly sought.

Some eyes reflect a pure embrace, like rivers calm and clear,
While others seem like distant lands, where kindness won't appear.

Some eyes are filled with quiet grief, some warm like hearth and home,
And some can pierce into your soul, though they've not stayed or roamed.

Some people glow in colors bright, while others hide their pain,
Some live in black and white, while others just seek shelter from the rain.

And those you trust the most, it seems, can hurt you deep within,
Yet, when you're far from them, with ease, they lift you from your sin.
