"The journey is the reward."
- Steve Jobs
I laid my eyes on you,
Hoping to fall upon you.
But I saw you look on
To that other man,
I tried to converse with you.
But you just want to be
As all girls seems to say,
“Good friends for now.”
With little or no emotion,
I take my eyes off you,
Hoping only to forget you.
But I wasn’t able to express
The many feelings,
I have and will always have
Towards the one woman
I’ll love until the end of time.
