You shine

You shine in the darkest of places

throw smiles around like you never run out

I stare at you like the sun

slowly going blind from your glow

Never wanting to look away

but not real sure how to say

hello

 

First word

first smile

first kiss

stay awhile

I laugh at your jokes

you hold me so close

I almost can't tell you

goodbye

 

You walk away like the waves rushing back into the sea

I hold on to your memory

Last hug

last chance

one more

last dance

 

Sometimes when I miss you most

I think back to when you held me close

your arms around my waist

I sink back to that place

Your eyes

Your lips

first kiss

our last

Your voice

Did I make the right choice

 

I know you're somewhere

out there

I know you're someone's

world

But I wonder still

Could  you have been my girl
