The One That Got Away

Thank you
You took me by complete surprise
You were the last thing I thot I'd find
You were the mist that fell unexpectedly
You took the night so very ordinary
And transformed it into beautiful

Thank you
You were the secret smile constantly worn
You were the reason for my abandonment
You took me out of my carefully constructed shell
And made me dance like a child

Thank you
You were the motive behind my manic-ness
You were the underlying energy in my tired heart
You were the unformed song that waited to be played
And you were the muse that authored it

Thank you
You were the first tear that wet this cheek
You were the last kiss I wished to share
You were the image I branded that final night
You were the hand I still feel holding mine
And the one that got away
