Little Big Somethings

Glances

UPDATE: GUYS OMG I'LL BE READING THIS ONE IN A SCHOOL CONTEST THIS IS SO COOOOOLLLL(saw the rhyme here? Haha) also, bc of that, some song-related improvements. Enjoyyyy

She had the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen
Like diamonds filling the spaces
Where eyes had once been

Maybe the most beautiful eyes I'll ever see
A faster heartbeat when I took a glance at her
And she was already staring at me

Happiness and doubt used to fill my heart
I collected glances from months
When I told her what I felt, like papers, my soul fell apart

But there is nothing wrong
Life is just like that
One more sad, depressing song

It was actually long ago
And I realize I'm really fine now
Because I know what is to be really low

Those glances got lost in time
Traveling for maybe one day, maybe forever
Those glances that used to shine

Shining like the moon at midnight
A fake light
That made everything feel alright

I just wanted to be with you, please my heart
You looked back at me and I looked anywhere else
I wasn't sure - I wasn't right - I was afraid my dream would fall apart

So many glimpses, so many times I pretended I wasn't looking at you
Staring at you from time to time
Imagining how sweet like my life would be with you

I don't like alcohol but back then I could get on drink
I was 13 years old and it was cola
But I had to find a place where my soul could sink

I stayed so much nights up late
Just to think, just to dream awake
Trying to find what is love and hate

She seemed to hate me, sometimes
But those glances made it all fade
I just wanted to talk to her, sometimes

I wouldn't even dare to wink
She would rip off my eye
Looking to her, just looking, what in love requires to think?

And now those glances are all in the past
I barely look to her
But conversations last

I had to get away
I needed me for myself
I had to get away

It wasn't meant to be, we were not designed to fit
So if you're in the same situation
Just give up on it

Life goes on
You should too
