7,000 miles of broken sunset
You came and I was unprepared
Unguarded
Let you read me like an open book
Gave myself like a free song
I regret it
That kiss was perfect
The warmth of your breath was a little bit too much for me
As I feel you whisper the words I wish I wouldn’t hear
But I believed every word you said
I looked at the sun
That was you 7,000 miles away from me
And there I was, holding hands with you
Watching as it sets,
Subdued with the last of its rays
Yet I feel the burn
As I watched your face glow
Was it of happiness?
Of regret?
Or of hope?
Only to see my own reflection
Because you and I were never there
Call it as you may
I call it fate
It happened for a reason
Reasons I’m still finding out what
My heart is smiling and crying at the same time
It was nice knowing you
Sharing a secret with you
I don’t mind that I may never be with you in my waking life
I was with you in my dreams
Where our souls became one
And the love that we shared was pure
And so I bid goodbye to you my love
As I shed a tear I also didn’t expect
I’m sorry that I got caught up in my own dream
And found you nowhere in real life
I will always feel your love just by looking at the sun
And remember the sunset that we once shared
My sweet, beautiful stranger.
