I first saw you on a beautiful spring eve,
Such elegant grace, a heart so pure, a voice so plain;
You could have been the light of my life,
But this, I knew not then.
My insides trembled, at thy sight, I wondered why!
I felt the earth slip, beneath my feet;
And when thou looked into my eyes, time and again,
I asked myself...was there anything else left to gain...?
Such an experience, I've never had before,
And it was frightening I guess;
The sight of you, that lovely smile,
I couldn't get out of my head, I confess.
But I dared not express my emotions to you,
I was scared, of what...? I know not;
Yet through the nights, I thought of you, only,
Was it that, you too felt so lonely?
Maybe, thou felt the same for me,
You showed some signs, I thought so;
Yet I lacked the courage to approach you,
What if you'd said no...?
And then life took a toll,
Pressing matters I had to 'tend;
And I ended up having never said,
Why you were prettier than roses red...!
Life went on, we went our ways,
Lonesome roads to travel;
But restless I grew as days went by,
Will the mystique of true love ever unravel?
Now I realize, what a terrible mistake I made!
By not expressing my feelings;
I prey to God, to give me one chance,
To go back in time, and ask thou for a dance.
I know not, if I shall ever see you again,
I blame myself for missing what was;
Maybe my best chance to maketh,
My miserable life, a just and happy cause.
But know this, that even today, my heart beats for you,
I ever long for thy, ocean of compassion;
Like an out-of-water fish,
'Always be happy, where ever you are', this is my only wish.
