Unforgettable Memory

The dream you had,
The dream I have
Were never the same.
Our smiles made us stand out;
We were mistaken for all of this.

I remember the comforting silence.
I remember when you were right next to me,
But your absence
Drove me crazy.
I remember those eyes.

Being there—
Didn’t mean you belonged in my heart.
The last to be unaware
Of how far apart we are now,
I remember those smiles.

It was so sudden,
Even when you just glanced at her
I wasn’t chosen.
I now realized…
This is what I truly feel.

I remember when you would take me to that place
I remember everything you’ve said
I realize I wasn’t the one;
I understand now—
I can’t be anything more than just friends.
