Encanto


It was a hard journey after my first love
I made up my mind that I wouldn't fall
Days passed by, I saw him
Adoring from afar but I couldn't talk
Left my Abode to study at a place called BLUE
He was standing right there and then he passed behind me
Oh there I was happy and feeling free
If fate had a voice she would probably say it was meant to be
Another magical encounter created a scene
Enchanted by his voice,his eyes and long lashes
That heart of mine that burnt in to ashes
Lightened up again,kept me having him as flashes

I did my best not to make it obvious,
But I guess life has its way of making love victorious.
I couldn't not help the emptiness I felt if I didn't meet him
Which kept me thinking that maybe I had feelings for him.
Answers were sent down like a revealation
I tried denying but my namesy said yes it's a confirmation


We kept on lying to ourselves that we were just friends,
Meeting up always enjoying each other's company
But do friends miss each other and badly wanna see theirselves all the time.
Certainly,that's what lovers do
And that is what we grew to become.
