Through a common friend
I met her once,
Years ago this was
I thought said friend and her
Were something else
So I blocked her from my mind.

I few months back
This came to life
I met her once again
But with a new light in my eyes.

Fair she seemed this time
Lovely and kind.
At her silly own jokes she'd laugh
Then suddenly serious and caring she became
Yes, she showed immense care.

She made me laugh
I made her laugh
Though my jokes she claimed not to get
She'd laugh nevertheless.

The way she laughed was oh so cute:
She'd cover her own mouth
And burst in plenty a tear
Of carelessness and joy.

So why did she laugh
At my senseless jokes?
I'll never understand.
For a time I thought there was something there
Although now it's clear there was naught.

With someone else she now lays,
A surprise to me
For she answered so carefree.
Regardless, it's obvious now
Everything she was to me,
To her, naught I was.

So I try to heal
I try to grow
I try to get my wings once more
For lost to me they are.

A struggle it has been
To climb such mountain of regrets
A choice not to say what I had felt
All those days ago.

So great separation I now face,
Long has this fight been.
With lows and highs,
I'll try never to look back.

For yes!
Everything to me she was,
And nothing to her was I.
