That day, you said hi and I looked up, staring at you with surprise and hidden joy.

That night, you asked me out and your eyes shined with hope, they were as mesmerizing as the night sky.

That day, I waited for you and hours had gone by before you showed up.

That night, I stared at the ceiling as tears well up in my eyes until the dawn approached, until the Sun peeked over the edge of the horizon.

That day, we laughed, we ran and fooled around like children.

That day, you said goodbye and turned around with a smile before disappearing into the dark.

That day, my heart stopped beating.
