The Little Moments
"It's what matters,
the little moments", you had said.
Now I'm alone
With the mere memories of you inside my head.
Perhaps, it was better when I didn't pay no heed
to your words, to your deeds,
but looking back, a second in your presence alone
was worth more than this agonizing tone
I hear, I see
All around me.
Now, the yearning is all I know,
I wonder how far would I need to go
Do you wonder if we'll look again in the eye?
Do you think the little moment would be worth a try?
Was the cruel play of fate behind this all?
Won't we cross paths again this fall?
Would you still remember me?
Or would I be the little moment you forgot?
