This One For Natan
#4
I remember that time
When our eyes caught a blink of a sight
His smiles that taught me much
His eyes that showed the burning fire
The beauty of his wrinkles and flaws
That’s when his imperfections become perfections
Such an amusement when first time I saw you
When my heart accidentally decided that I know it’s you
Though I know we could never be together
Though I know, I was just stupid
That these distances make us apart
I distinctly remember
That sunny day of December
When I finally confessed
The feeling that I couldn’t hold anymore
And when it’s time for me to chose
Did I just admire?
Or did it love?
Parts of me shrieked
“Yes, you just admire him!”
But there was a shout within me
A single shout that I abandoned
Whispered gently and softly
“You love him,”
And yes, I love you.
