Your gaze drifts away, like leaves in the breeze,
I'm the one who's here, but you're lost in the trees.
You paint me in shadows, a flicker, a ghost,
While your heart seeks the one who you love the most.
Yet I'm more than a choice, I'm a spark in the dark,
A flame that can flicker, a fire, a spark.
I'll rise from the ashes, I'll dance in the rain,
For I'm not just a whisper, I'm joy and I'm pain.
So here's to the moments, both fleeting and bright,
I'll cherish the laughter, the warmth of your light.
Though I'm second in line, I'll stand tall and true,
For the girl that I am, is enough just for you.
