They say a look can say a thousand words.
You looked at me once, long ago
In such a way
That it put me on top of the world
No one could have pulled me down that day
As was almost as if you were looking straight into my soul.
That look is why I fell in love with you.
Two years later, I had forgotten that look.
It was replaced with another look...
The kind of look you give someone when you're not really looking at them at all,
Just past them
The way you cant really look someone in the eye while you're lying to them
A look that's cold and heartless
And doesn't remember how things used to be
I miss that look.
I wonder, dont you see me as beautiful anymore?
Dont you see ME anymore?
And so last night i died my hair,
A deep red that the box claimed was "sexy and brilliant"
And i thought that would turn your head...
But all it did was turn me pink
As usual, things didn't go as i planned them
I sat on the edge of the tub and cried
I don't know if i was crying because i looked like a freak at that moment,
or because my heart-brokenness finally caught up with me
Damnit i miss you
I covered my face as i walked into the room where you were sitting
I held my breath and waited for you to laugh
And make jokes like you always do
I could feel my legs shake and the tears were still falling from my eyes
And you didn't laugh.
You took me in your arms and said "Look at me"
And i couldn't, wouldn't.
"Look at me."
And it's a moment i'll always remember:
"Look at me."
"No, i don't want you to look at my hair."
"I dont want to look at your hair, I want to look at you."
And when i looked up and let the last tear fall from my eye and i could see clear again,
All i saw was that look.
It left me breathless.
That look was all i saw
The moment before you kissed me.

It's the little precious moments in life that need remembering.

Find one person you can count on forever, one person you can love forever, and one person you can be with forever... and if you're lucky, it will all be the same person.
