One Second

You were always there

You existed so effortlessly

The soft light shining through

Always in your quiet smile.

I was always there

A force to be noticed

A loud burst in every room

Trying to never hold back a laugh.

We were never a 'we'

Not until Tuesday

We were a pair unlike any other

One I would've fought for

And it seemed like you would too

Until one second 

Everything changed

And on Friday I questioned everything

All because of one second
