a last glance

While leaving, turn around once, 
Seek my eyes in the crowded place, 
For in their depths, you'll find a trace, 
Of the love my fragile heart holds for you.

In the silence between our words, 
A quiet plea remains unheard, 
Look back, just one final time, 
To see the unspoken rhyme.

The world may pull us apart, 
But here, within my beating heart, 
The memories of our shared moments stay, 
As you walk away, far away.

In that fleeting second, if you do, 
Catch my gaze, hold it true, 
You'll see the tenderness that never fades, 
Even as distance our paths invades.

So, turn around just once more, 
Before we close this chapter's door, 
In my eyes, let the love we knew, 
Linger in the last look, just for you.
