Just like the Little Prince wanted to tame the fox, I also tried to capture and tame something elusive
Like golden sand slipping through my fingers, you evaded my grasp
Your presence was enchanting, drawing me in with an irresistible allure
Yet, despite my efforts, you remained untamed, slipping away like a mirage in the desert
You left me breathless everytime I felt your intoxicating scent
Fleeting moments that left a permanent mark on my fragile heart
I yearned for a connection that would withstand the test of time
Wanted to grow old with you
Count the growing wrinkles and gray hair together
Alas, it was not meant to be
I know i have to let you go
But in my heart I will never give us up as long as I live
All that remains are the memories of your lips - the taste of ripe peaches, and the longing to have woven our bodies together
I will always cherish all our delicate moments
Those never fade away
Just like my love for you
