I dread the day I met you

I dread the day I set my eyes on you

When I saw your smile,

from a distance in a mile


I dread the day I met you

I dread the day you walked past me

..by the coffee shop.

Your vibe filled with excitement and hope.


I dread the day I met you

I dread the day I heard your seasoned laughter

That echoes through the room

The embodiment of truth


I dread the day I met you

I dread the day your lips touched mine

Tasty like well-aged wine

A rare connection of the mind


I dread the day I met you

I dread the day you touched my soul

You cultivated hope on barren soil

With the obstinacy of a mole



I dread the day I met you

I dread THAT day…

..because


now,


I can’t un feel the love

I can’t unhear the words

I can’t stop the tears

I can’t shut off the memories

I can’t put my demons to sleep

I can’t calm the voices in my head

I can’t pretend it never happened

I… just… can’t!!


I dread the day I met you.
