When you had touched my cheek,
You had touched my soul.
You adored me,
But you became a crush never declared.
I promised myself then,
I will love you with every breath,
And I told myself,
I could never love any other girl.
The softness of your smile
The twinkle in your eyes,
I had remembered for long,
When I used to find you in every song.
I had followed you,
I had given you roses,
And you had touched my cheek,
Patted me or kissed on my forehead.
You saw me like a young cute child I think,
After all I was ten years younger and just a child
But you were my first crush,
And even when nothing was to happen,
You changed me,
You taught me how to love.
