Watching over you from afar

Watching over you

Today too, my eyes are only seeing you.
There are a lot of people here but I only see you.
I bet you are asking yourself how can I only focus on you, and truthfully I also keep an eye on other people.
But just to make sure they don't hurt you.
I still remember the first day I saw you. It even still feels like yesterday but it's been a long time ever since. I remember how our eyes met, how gentle your voice was and how kind your soul is. All those traits of yours are engraved deep in my soul, deep in my memories, even deeper in my heart.

"What is she up to today?" I thought as I roamed around to find you. I did find you but you were different from usual. Your eyes weren't shining, you didn't behave like yesterday nor like the day before yesterday, the kindness you had wasn't glowing anymore and it looked like you were in pain. I could feel that something was wrong: you were sad, you were crying your heart out.

I wish I could do something to comfort you.
I'm sorry, all I can do is watching over you.
