While they were holding hands and dancing
someone was there in the far corner
watching and crying

Love and melody
melody and nostalgia
nostalgia wrapped in memories

She held a picture
of her favourite actor
close to her heart

And I wondered

Why couldnt I be the one

When she came down to see me
in a cyber cafe
I wanted her to sit a little closer
and stay there forever

All that love of mine
was a hopeless journey
a tragedy I still remember
yet one filled with sweet moments

Sometimes
in memory of her
even bitter moments become sweet

And sometimes
the sweetest moments
turn bitter

When you say goodbye
to someone who chooses
a different path

and years later
your paths cross again

before death closes the final door

it feels as though

I have become enlightened
