A glimpse of you,

once brought a feeling of bliss,

now only tribulation. 

I catch a glimpse of what was,

what could have been. 

Was it all a lie?

 

Or just a game?

 

Oh how I loved being your pawn,

oblivious to what was truly there. 

You come around me,

I don’t speak to you, nor you to I. 

Nothing, 

 but a glimpse.
