A Chapter I Couldn't Finish

A Chapter I Couldn't Finish
A Chapter I Couldn’t Finish...

I loved you quietly,
like the moon loves the sea—
pulling tides it can never touch.

You said,
"Let’s not ruin this friendship."

And I smiled,
the kind of smile
that hides a storm behind calm skies.

Because what do you say
when your heart confesses,
but your place in her life
is already named "friend"

I think we were never meant to be…
but you still hold my hand,
like someone holding a bookmark
afraid to lose the page,
but never ready to finish the story.

Meeting you
was the favorite chapter of my life.
