Heartbreak at First Sight

Heartbreak at First Sight

I saw you passed by,

Time stopped at that time.

You have this simple yet unique attraction,

That definitely caught my attention.

It was my first to be charmed instantly,

Like a magnet reacting to metal things.

You're captivating enough to make things right,

Like it was a love at first sight.

My eyes kept looking at you,

Wishing to turn around and notice me too.

I observed every move you make,

Making my heart beats like I'm having a race.

But as you walk away from me,

I saw something that would definitely hurt me.

You approached someone and had a sudden kiss,

My heart was in an immediate misery.

You can never tell how fast everything happened at that time;

I imagined things that someday you will be mine.

And I thought it was a real love at first sight,

But I guess it was my heartbreak at first sight.
