Another Name, Another Face

He’s a sunbeam slicing through a crowded room,

golden and warm, but never meant for me.

His smile—a flicker of fireflies in twilight—

dances just beyond my outstretched fingers.

I am the quiet shadow in the corner,

watching the world spin in colors too bright,

my heart a fragile glass orb,

cradled in trembling hands,

ready to shatter at the slightest touch.

He moves like a melody, effortless and free,

a wild song that echoes in empty streets,

while I am the silent pause between notes,

haunted by the weight of unsaid words.

Around him, laughter blooms like spring flowers,

a garden where I am just a ing breeze—

felt but never held,

seen but never known.

I trace the outline of his carefree steps,

each one a ripple in the still pond of my thoughts,

and I wonder if he feels the tremor,

or if I am just a ghost in his daylight.

Time is a film reel, spinning too fast,

a month of scenes I can’t rewind—

and still, I press play,

hoping for a moment frozen in light,

where maybe, just maybe,

he looks my way.

But for now, I am the girl with a heart on the edge,

falling again,

into the same old story,

written in shadows and whispered dreams.
