A brief moment I spent today
To stare at you from a far, nothing to say
I looked and try to see
How things have been without me

A brief moment I smile to know
That everything is a smooth flow
That you seem fine and well
But from that moment I shall not dwell

A brief moment I stayed still
From afar, it's like a slow kill
I slowly drown with the scenes on my mind
From the start until the last spoken word became unkind

A brief moment I remembered how it happened
Then suddenly it was the end
I move around the place I stand
Uneasy and troubled, not knowing where to land

A brief moment I slowly end
From staring, my heart won't mend
I walk away and feel the pain
I whisper "I still love you", that shall keep me sane
