The corner store’s light glows till three a.m.
I hold a cold drink, then our eyes meet—yours familiar, dim
You wear that low ponytail, just like back then
Feet pause for a beat, but no words break the rim
Traffic lights flash, cars cut through the night
I stand rooted, watching you cross to the other side
Your favorite song hums in the wind’s soft flight
I bite my tongue, didn’t call your name—not even a sigh
Your number’s deleted, then typed again
Text box empty, down to just a period’s thin
Last year this season, we walked these streets hand in hand
Now the same path holds only shadows, blending in
Your white sneakers—still the style you loved back when
But the hand you’re holding’s not mine, a new face, calm
The evening wind lifts my jacket, as if teasing gently then
Some meetings end before they can restart, my friend
Streetlights flicker, down the familiar lane
Near-meet lingers, like a half-sung refrain
We circled how many times, fate’s quiet game
Still missed the sign, the moment’s gentle claim
Stories left unwritten, chapters cut short and plain
Let regret drift away, on the wind’s soft train
Echoes of a near-meet, we passed each other by
Corner clocks chime, shattering memories nigh
Once-promised forever, stuck on yesterday’s sigh
Never got the chance to say a proper goodbye
Echoes of a near-meet, time leaves a tiny why
Carefree smiles hide a flicker of goodbye’s cry
Unspoken words buried, where the heart won’t pry
Calmly accept this fate—our missed, gentle tie
Echoes of a near-meet, we passed each other by
Corner clocks chime, shattering memories nigh
Once-promised forever, stuck on yesterday’s sigh
Never got the chance to say a proper goodbye
Echoes of a near-meet, time leaves a tiny why
Carefree smiles hide a flicker of goodbye’s cry
Unspoken words buried, where the heart won’t pry
Calmly accept this fate—our missed, gentle tie
If I’d been braver, just one step more that night
If I’d called your name, stopped you in your flight
Would the ending shift, just a little light?
Instead of letting regret take flight
Heard later you’re living just right
I learned to make peace with the "almost" fight
Those missed moments, like a gentle goodnight
Left in the summer wind, where memories take flight
Echoes of a near-meet, we passed each other by
Corner clocks chime, shattering memories nigh
Once-promised forever, stuck on yesterday’s sigh
Never got the chance to say a proper goodbye
Echoes of a near-meet, time leaves a tiny why
Carefree smiles hide a flicker of goodbye’s cry
Unspoken words buried, where the heart won’t pry
Calmly accept this fate—our missed, gentle tie
