I had let you go, a realisation crept.
And now, I repented,
Repented the moment, I thought was right,
Repented the turn I took, I thought was right,
I thought you were right and in front, The perfect girl.
But you were gone, I could not even get to see you, your face.
I could not get to know you, you, my imperfect stranger.
Or maybe, Withered and torn, the imaginary creation, I had made you.
There was no you. Just me.....
Maybe,
When I took that turn, I could have dreamt of you standing, looking into my eyes.
And then I could have seen you, your perfect face.
And written verses in your admiration.
Maybe, I just need to close my eyes,
And find you again!!
