Not Meant to Be
I first fell in love with your eyes.
My glistening reflection in them always mesmerized me.
Your outlook on life never ceased to surprise me.
Then I fell in love with
your smile.
I liked the way your face wrinkled when I made you laugh.
The way your cheeks spread when you grinned from
ear to ear.
One of the many things I still remember so clear.
Third, I became captivated by
your hair.
Soft, curling ringlets of brown cascading everywhere.
But your arms are what caught me.
Wrapped up in your warm embrace, I felt the heat pass right through me.
Like the sun on a summer day.
That's just one of the things nobody could do your way.
But I simply cannot forget your voice.
Characterized by deep octaves and oh how I loved to hear you say my name.
Even when they say it correctly, it isn't the same.
But I can't forget about your lips.
The dark mustache that always tickled my face.
When it brushed up against my cheek-- I wouldn't trade it for any other place.
But, you know I really loved your mind.
You were always so put together, never seemed like you had to find
Your place, cause my heart made room I swear it did.
No matter how many times I tried to convince it that we could never be.
The times I doubted if you even felt the same about me.
Wondering if you could ever put your love into words.
Or was there even love at all, the mystery is the part that hurts.
Because I sit here thinking of you , and I don't think you do the same.
I hate when someone you love morphs into a change.
I can't express in words how much it hurts.
I can't tell you how much I loved you.
Despite what you thought, I never put any one above you.
But its cool, I've come to understand everything isn't meant to be.
That maybe no matter how bad I want it, you just weren't made for me.
But if you couldn't tell before, I hope you can see that you're a star.
I fell in love with you some time ago, and I'll keep loving from afar.
