Mr & Mrs Star
Catrina Fuentes 1981 (United States)
In the bustle of our daily grind,
I glimpsed a face from another time.
Two decades past, in high school's glow,
A crush, a dream, a heart aflow.
Fate's twist brought us side by side,
In the workplace's relentless stride.
Eyes met, old embers started to burn,
A silent spark, a shy return.
But alas, our moment was fleeting,
Life's cruel hand, without repeating.
The love tension lingered there,
A bittersweet ache, a tender snare.
For he, my crush, my youthful flame,
Was taken too soon, his final claim.
Our paths converged, but could not align,
A love story lost, a silent sign.
Yet in my heart, he'll always be,
A cherished memory, pure and free.
Though parted by life's fleeting breath,
In my thoughts, he'll dance until death.
