Perfect

Inspired by Ed Sheeran's "Perfect"

It was once a puppy love
She was five
He was six
Not knowing what destiny brings

They were teenagers
When one must bid farewell
Farewell with sweet words and promises
A farewell sealed with a kiss

He promised, he will return
She promised, there'll be no one else
But a promise is just a shattered glass
Goodbye is something deeper.

They were grown ups when he returned
A promise yet to be fulfilled.
They were stuck in a lovers cave
Where they came to be when they were young.

The rain pours hard
Like their feelings that remain untold
He really wanted to dance with her
But there was no music to dance to

He asked her to close her eyes
She obliged and he did the same
He placed her hands on his shoulders and his hands on her waist
Together, they'll sing what song does their heart desire.

'Cause we were just kids
When we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time

So darling
just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own
And in your eyes your holding mine

They were taken aback
For they sang the same song
One thing's for sure
Nothing can stop their heart's desire

As they were about
To close the gap between them,
He closed his eyes
Once he opened them, she was gone.

She was gone like the wind.
Her feelings too.
Everything became complicated
Unlike the love they had when they were young.

Yes, it was only a dream
Made by his heart longing for her
In his dream they were dancing,
Dancing with equal fervor.

He went back to the cave
Hoping she'll be there
But it seems like destiny gave up,
Destiny grew tired of their story.

The rain fell hard once more.
He was standing all alone,
Not knowing what to do.
His eyes were swimming in his unshed tears.

Destiny was known for being playful.
Destiny, was the best cupid.
Destiny, may grow tired,
But destiny, it never fails.

He was shivering due to the cold weather
Alone in the cave.
Until he saw a familiar face his heart longed for, smiling at him.
She looked perfect.
