Emily and I

Emily and I, we were orphaned kids.
She was 7, and so was I
She was left out, and I was favored
We met each other, and from then on
We would search for each other after we woke up.
One day before birthday
My fate was changed
A family adopted me
And I was over the moon
Two parents and a brother
Oh how happy I was
I went to find Emily
Joy oh joy, I want her to join
Finally we can have a home
And be together forever
But she weren't in her room
Nor the yard or under the tree
Where we hung out with everyday
I cried and cried, my joy was gone
And that was the first time I lost her.

Days have passed and years went by
I grew to an older boy
Whose life was pink
And passion shone bright
Yet one was brighter, the brightest of them all
And it was to find the girl I once lost.
Back then, there was a writer
Who was a weirdo, but works known wide
He had daughter, the only he called family
And one day of fate
We met from two sides
My eyes were widened, and mouth agape
My thoughts screaming "It's her! It's her!"
Through surprises and shock
Through happiness and guilts
With a dry throat and bumping heart
I screamed out her name
"Emily!" She turned back
Did she see me? Or did she not?
The girl with beautiful yellow irises
Pink lips and rosy cheeks
With an expression I couldn't determine
Were pulled away before my eyes
Before she could say a word to me
I watched her go, with sorrows inside
I cried again, but with silence
If only I have found you that day
I wouldn't have lost you the second time.

Emily and I, we haven't met since then.
We have places we called home
And roads we chose
One day or another, we might cross path
If lucks would hang on our thin string of fate
Months after months and years after years
I grew to be a mature young man
Whose passions were bright
And dreams were big
Though only one was bigger than them all
One that I longed to achieve it for years
To find the girl I twice lost.
Whenever I sit, I think of her life
How she is doing
And if she is happy
She could have started a family
And have a new home of her own
Why did it make me sad
To think about she could be happy
On her own, without me?
I hold myself back, and force my feelings away
As long as she is happy
I am happy as well.
Life is full of surprises
And so is Emily
A moment of carelessness
Had lent me its lucks
Beautiful familiar yellow eyes
With rosy cheeks and pinkish lips
Without a doubt, I know it's her
The girl I longed to meet again
The girl who I've loved the day we met
"Emily!" I gasped
And she gazed back at me
With widened eyes and surprised look
"We meet again, I've missed you so"
Her irises, they sparkle as she spoke
With her soft and timid voice
She called my name
"Bryan!" I smiled
I've found you Emily
My joy and dearest
Whom I called love.
