That can never truly be mine.
It came quietly into my life,
Touched my heart but did not stay.
This is a calm and simple love,
I fell for one who cannot walk with me.
I am not lost in sadness,
I do not hold it like a burden.
It is enough I held that love once,
like water resting in my palms.
If I ask for more and more,
The color of love changes slowly.
To love and not to keep, needs courage,
Though my heart feels pain.
I will not turn this love into a storm.
Sometimes we only keep memories but not people.
Life is not about owning every flower,
Sometimes we just enjoy its beauty and fragrance.
Even when the wind takes it away,
We’ve to smile and let it go.
