He said “Hi” today.
Oh God, what did I say?
“Good morning” or something,
It was total instinct.
If my heart did stop, my lungs didn`t help.
At an instant I froze inside myself.
I wonder if he knows how beautiful he is.
That nature, herself shyes green away envious.
And a light called “hope” shines from his eyes.
Now my heart hurts but I`m not going to cry…
He said “Hi”.
I wish I knew what he was thinking.
As he turned his head to look at me.
Maybe the pain from his thought`s reality
Would crash down on me like gravity.
It`s all a trick fate loves to play.
To twist this damage within me like clay.
See, I know I`ll never be good enough
To deserve the encompassing warmth of his love.
So I`m standing here, still in time
Wishing I`d never seen his eyes.
He said “Hi”.
