leading man.

...in 3,2,1.

you sit there.
as if the world is yours.
for a fleeting moment, i saw you smile.
that smile that knocked me off my feet the first time we met.

the lights were bright.
but that grin in your face is blinding.
i must admit.
i have never seen you happier.

scenes of what we once were came flashing.
i was half-awake.
the reel goes playing.

it wasn't the same you nor the same me.
the story turned to its sweetest twist.
the soundtrack has a cheery melody.
the actors all beaming.

and as i walk away from that smile.
that smile that got me on my feet the day our roads again meet.
the bittersweet memories of yesteryear fades in the background slowly.

you were once the leading man.
i was once the leading lady.
but our once-upon-a-time now lays in the pages of history.
the movie of you and me is history.

the lights were bright.
and that smile in your face is blinding.
i walk away with a grin.
i must admit.
i have never been happier.

...and cut.
