Something to share

I was sixteen when we met, Wearing our school's shirt. Five years ago, we are in a queue, A line not meant for our hearts. Tiredness was in our bags, Yet, you don't forget to smile. A smile not meant for me, Yet, I wish it is mine. We travel the same road, But it does not lead us to each other. We go to the same places, Yet, it is not I who was with you. At twenty one it is still you, And for five years I've waited. Is five years still not enough? They even call it foolish. At sixteen we have met, And wished I have taken the bait. Five years and counting, For us to have a happy ending.

In a world full of the unknowns, You are still the one I'm sure of. In the crowd of strangers, You are still the one I'm looking for. Even though the world keeps us apart, You're still the one I keep in  my heart. For me, our story has never ended, Even though there's no us to begin with. 🌙 dhahab
