So young you were when we first conversed.
So innocent you were that I knew you couldn't hurt a fly.
So charming was your voice that I fell in love the first time we spoke.
So young you were that I thought of molding you into the perfect woman for me.
How perfect was our situation being that we fell in love simultaneously.
We chatted everyday on 2go from the morning to the late night.
Though late at night, we simply couldn't get enough of each other.
So we talked over the phone until the cock crow.
Then we slept a bit to replenish ourselves.
I was young but you were younger.
You lived closeby but yet so far.
Distance became our greatest enemy.
The difference in our time schedule became its Second-in-Command (2IC).
We held on but we simply were hurting each other.
With no words and no action, my world came crashing down.
Que Sera Sera they say, with that I retired into my shell.
