We cross paths,
After long time.
I look into your eyes,
You look into mine,
But in those seconds few,
You were searching,
Maybe answers,
Maybe warmth,
Maybe love.
Then you remembered,
I broke us,
I wasted away,
When I should have been with you,
I took us for granted.
That we are no more.
And your gaze went pale,
Then it smiled over some other guy.
In those seconds few,
I also searched in your blues,
For anger,
For forgiveness,
For love.
But, I just found a stranger,
Who I knew very well.
Then I remembered,
I killed us.
That I din't even ask,
You to stay.
But, you gazed away,
I realised that I will forever regret,
That we are no more,
As you walked away.

Thank you so much everyone for all the love and the blessings. Love you all! <3
