Sometime later

Sometime later,
when your beauty will fade away

When you’ll realise

That suddenly you can’t run the five kilometres

So easily like you used to.

When combing your last few strands of hair each time

Will be a war

When sipping on your morning coffee

You’ll try to remember the name

Of that girl you left

On the river bank,

Smiling silly because she was stupid enough

To think what you gave her

Was love

That’s when you’ll realise

That all these years of your life

You had everything

But never a single drop of love.

She went on

Searching desperately for something

To fill the spaces that you left her with

And in that

She won the world.

So yes,

Sometime later you’ll know

The only one mediocre

Was you.
