The One

There's always just that one.
The one that makes you smile
in your darkest moments.
The one that you want to have hold you
when you're in tears.
He's the one you can't get out of your head
the one that you love and loves you.

It starts with just a simple look
their eyes just connecting with yours.
Then there's a smile
and you know they're the one.

A few late night phone calls,
a few shared hugs.
A few secrets among the two of you.
You both know you're the other's one.

The one that you will never forget.
The one that you'll love for always.
The one that loves you so much.
The one that changes their ways for you.

They make you laugh
they make you cry.
They reassure you.
They promise to never let anyone hurt you.
Always protecting you from pain and hurt.
Always being gentle and loving.

The one you think of during a sad song
the one you look for during that slow dance.
The one who comes and picks you up when you're sitting down.
The one who always knows when you're upset.

It ends with a little more than a kiss,
tears rolling down your cheeks.
Them telling you to be strong and that everything is going to be alright.
You knowing it won't be.
The one is gone forever, and you're alone.
That's how it ends, with a simple stop of a heart.
And the breaking of another.

The one is gone.
But the one is never forgotten.
Forever and always there.
Deep in your thoughts,
coming back to you when you think you can't remember anything.
The one will always be there.
