DESTINY

We never get 

the timing right, do we?

When I was in love,

all you wanted to do was flee.

Away from me 

and away from us.

Just far enough

so that I would give up.

Well, how smart you were

for your plan suceeded,

and I stood defeated.

Time flew,

days turned to weeks

and weeks to months,

I gave up on you ,

decided to move on.

That's when I met him,

and fell for his pretty smile.

How his hair fell in his eyes,

just like yours did sometimes. 

I saw flashes of you in him,

just small, tiny things.

like his habit to bite his lips 

or call me sweet names.

It was all good

and we were happy together.

I was free of you 

and in love with him.

That's when you saw

how much you'd lost.

Your jealousy showed

on your face 

as you tried, relentlessly,

to take his place.

Now the tables had turned,

but I wasn't as selfish as you,

I just loved him more.

When I told you, 

you seemed so broken,

But it was all an act, I guess,

as now I see you content

with the girl in the dress.

What happens, 

happens for the good, I mean.

because our meeting,

was destiny.
