Your face
That smile
Your blue eyes
They twinkle
My heart
It fumbles
My lungs
They crumble
The heartbreak
Rings
Echoing in my
Being
Every time I see
You
I am reminded that I was a
Fool.
The clock
Tick-Tocks
We both
Move on.

This poem is about seeing that one person you've never quite gotten over for that split second you're passing each other by.
