Beautiful Girl

I saw her.

And she was beautiful! In everything!
In sound, in face, in warmth!

I could walk by her side and it was wonderful!

Such a kind and happy time,

To mask the hidden shadow in my heart.

It wasn't escapism you gave me,

But an overpowering light.

So meaningful.

The lantern turns cold again because it is weak.

But I will remember when it lit up bright.
