Last Look
In this quiet corner, whispers flow,
Your laughter dances, a radiant glow,
Each secret glance steals my breath away,
Time slips through fingers, lives sway,
As college days wane, I hold on to you.
Oh, how your smile brightens the gloom,
Like blossoms unfurling to chase the doom,
Those pink lips curl with untold delight,
In the hush of dusk, you’re purest light,
Yet shadows descend, and silence looms.
I watch from afar as you spin and sway,
Your cheerfulness paints the world in array,
With every echo of laughter that rings,
A melody lingers, the joy that it brings,
But soon, my dear, we’ll be worlds away.
Your lovely hair, a midnight cascade,
In the twilight hour, my heart is laid,
I’ll miss the warmth of your radiant charm,
The way you light up both night and calm,
A secret love, a bittersweet serenade.
The halls we walked, now fading to gray,
Our paths diverging, might as well pray,
But memories linger, deep in my soul,
Your essence, my solace, the way I feel whole,
As the curtain falls on this fleeting play.
With every heartbeat, I’ll cherish your spark,
A hidden treasure stashed in the dark,
Cherished silences, stolen moments,
Words unspoken, love’s quiet components,
In this final year, love leaves its mark.
So I’ll keep this secret, a truth in disguise,
As the bittersweet tears fill up my eyes,
In the echoing corridors, I’ll bid you farewell,
With dreams of the past cloaked in a spell,
A love just beneath the surface, wise.
And though we part, my thoughts will reside,
In the shimmering depths where shy dreams collide,
For forever cherished, you’ll softly stay,
In the chambers of heart, come what may,
As the last year whispers, I keep you inside.
