Once In Love

Sitting in a classroom by the window
So bored out of mind and depressed
Gazing at the school yard thinking
Wondering what’s missing in my life
The teacher speaks out loud
Drawing everybody’s attention
I ignore the teacher’s command
Till I heard a sweet voice
I turned my head with curiosity and enthusiasm
My eyes wide open in shock
I see this celestial figure by the door
Walking down the isle
Sitting next to me
My heart beating uncontrollably
I was in love.
We became close partners
Until one day after seasons passed
She moved to another place
Away from the love and caring
I was about to give her
Never saying goodbye
My heart shattered into countless pieces
My body into shock cannot withstand the pain
I was lonely and depressed once more
Thinking of her worsens my deep scar.
My phone rings annoyingly
Wondering who could it be
I answered and almost fainted
It was her
Her voice sounding so soothing
Listening to every word she speaks
I heard something different out of the ordinary
Three words that made me tear and happy
She said in a soft passionate voice “I love you.”
