What You Saw
The thing I read:
The day I met you...
You looked like the sunrise after a long night,
The moon in a dark sky.
You were just the perfect sight.
You seemed shy and I wasn’t surprised.
When I looked in your eyes, I had a glimpse of us, you didn’t understand why I smiled.
I wished time could freeze,
I wished I could hold you in my sleeves.
But I felt out of your league.
I just came from a basketball game, I was dirty and you were clean,
Just like my soul and yours .
I was dressed in black,you in white.
It made me question “Am I meant to be yours?”
So in my head after the short sunny sky came a heavy storm, and a sleepless night.
I just needed to hear your voice tell me “let me be yours tonight”
The way I replied:
Maybe you saw something
I never thought was there,
a moment, a smile,
a feeling in the air.
I don't know what you saw
when you looked into my eyes,
or why that little moment
felt bigger in your mind.
Two strangers crossed paths,
one dressed in black, one in white,
and somehow you turned
that moment into a stormy night.
Maybe it wasn't meant to be anything,
maybe it was just a scene,
a small moment in time
that somehow felt different.
And maybe that's enough,
some moments don't need a reason,
they just happen,
and stay with you for a season.
