A special moment comes unknowingly
The person who is gone doesn’t come to mind
We tend to everything subconsciously;
I look around, not sure what I will find
The corner of my eye I see by chance
A step from me she stands: hope soaring high
A small dream-clouded vision of a glance
Reality returns with a low sigh
The shadow was not her, the shock did seethe
An underwater dream did bubble up
Try gasping for air when you can hardly breathe
It only takes two seconds to tear up
Deep down I know I won’t see her again
That said, my eyes still search for her brown mane
