one, two, three.


one, two, three.

one look.

two seconds.

three words.

I love you.

 

one day

your eyes

connected with mine.

you smiled.

I couldn’t breathe.

 

two weeks later.

we spoke

for the first time.

I tripped.

you laughed.

 

three years later.

I saw you

hand in hand

with someone else.

you looked happy.

 

one, two, three.

one look.

two seconds.

three words.

I miss you.
