I Watch Her From Afar I dare to look at her from afar

watch her closely one last time

I know her eyes are shedding tears;

not of joy but from her fears

for she regrets what she has done;

pushed away the only one

who saw the stars within her eyes

- eyes as blue as sunny skies -

whenever she made him lose control

as she uncovered his dark soul

And in moments of untangled passions,

which made them both unaware

of their reactions,

he drew her close; very near

and whispered "I love you" in her ear

But she was too lost, and never heard

as he offered her the world

Such events happened on rare occasions,

and that fateful night was no exception.

It was angst that made her use

his usual silence as an excuse

to close her eyes and walk away...

how she wanted him to stay!

But just like him, she was very proud

and would forever smile as her heart broke down.

Now even though they are apart,

and she went on for a new start,

there's always the memory of that man

who once placed a rose on her hand

as she looked at him; straight to his eyes

hid her tears, and said

"Goodbye"
