I learned something new,
nothing is everlasting in this world,
and we only borrow moments.
A moment
the evening you confessed to me.
A moment
you met me with your eyes,
then smiled at the corner of your lips
after I said something silly.
A moment
your hand found mine by accident
as we crossed the road.
A moment we kissed,
not from lust or impulse,
but from a quiet need
we both understood.
And you said
I was the radiance of the room.
Like morning,
greeting me with sunlight.
I know.
You know.
We noticed how deeply we loved each other.
It was never meant to be forever,
and we learned
that it is okay.
