you came softly into my life
and left
before i knew you'd arrived.I glanced up to see you beside me,
but only
in the corner of my eye.like a sunset none saw you approaching—
but stopped
to watch you go.I spent the whole night mourning you.
if only
I had known.oh, if you'd come to see me
this time
I'll wait for you.but when you enter like the dawn,
I think,
you're someone new—deception
