You're A Little Too Late

"The past is a foreign country;
they do things differently there."

Back then, he was my everything in this world.
But I knew, he didn't notice my worth.
Hiding my feelings, the only thing I did for years.
When I saw him with his girl, I just can't stop the tears.

I decided to move on and started a new life.
No communications, no social life, I had no time.
Still, fate allowed me to meet a new guy.
Through his black eyes, I simply couldn't lie.


Unexpectedly, I saw a conversant face from the past.
Reminiscing the love that I thought will last.
I found my self smiled and gazed at his face.
Nothing had changed. He was still the same.


He opened his mouth and started to confess.
Told me he was a fool and should show me caress.
"I've waited for those words all my life," and I said,
"But, you're a little too late. I'm married."


Thanks for passing by and Godspeed! :)
May the force be with us.
