After years of waiting
for you to notice me
one day, you smiled at
me. It felt so
wonderful to be known by
you.
Your smile was as sunlight,
and it took
away the darkness I felt
inside. Instead of
gloomy days and gray
skies, everything
became beautiful…
We dared to dream about
the future and
visions of us walking
together, holding
hands became routine, as
thoughts of
lovely places, and star-filled
nights flirted
with my mind.
Music played, and
laughter rang out as our
bodies glided across the
dance floor, and
sensual moonlight
covered us with its magic.
In your eyes I could see
the love you felt for
me was real. Then, as we
raised our glasses in
a toast to our romance,
shadows danced
within the fiery passion
of our hearts.
Your words wrapped
themselves around
my thoughts, like the
silken skin of our
bodies touching each
other for the first time,
and I felt like I was
living within a dream.
But like all good
things, everything came
crashing down with the whistle
of a far-away
train, as it signaled the
end of what was never
meant to be.
Our love was just a
mirage of the night, and as a
tear fell from my eye, I
wrapped my lonely arms
around the blanket, and let
out a sigh cloaked in
misery and pain, in the
realization that our love
had never been.
