Before I knew you, I did not know myself. Before I knew you, I thought I knew myself.
I did not know that a stray wind carrying in its fold a faint fragrance from yore, would make my heart miss a beat, stop time and freeze me in its eternal moment. I did not know that a laughter from a stranger would reverberate across an ocean of full of shackled memories, and huge tidal waves of your thoughts, could drown me into eternal grief. I did not know that I will catch myself so often, intensely staring at strangers in red, for red was your favourite colour.
Before I knew you, I thought I had conquered love and were immune to it.
Before I knew you, I was barely human.
The last line.
ReplyDeletesays it all.
there's this song your words remind me of. jus felt like sharing
Late at night I close my eyes
And think of how things could have been
And when I look back
I remember some words you had said to me
It's better to have lost at love
Then never to have loved at all
I won't forget you baby
Even though I should.
Sometimes in my head
I can still see pictures of you
And I laugh to myself
When I think of all those crazy things that we used to do
Although miles come between us
Just between you and me
I should let you fade away
But that just wouldn't be me
Although miles come between us
Just between you and me
I won't forget you baby
Memories slowly fade
I won't forget you baby
And all the plans we made
