A Glimpse.

Isn't life funny.  A glimpse there a date here.
a day full of joy, a day full of discovery.
a day full of rememberance, a day full of smiles.
once it's done, it feels like the glimpse may turn into something else.

But it is nothing more than a glimpse.  A glimpse of the what if's.
What if it worked out.  What if she was mine and I was hers.
What if there was another date, what if there was a spark.
But life is funny and cruel.  There was none of that.  Just sadness.

And so it is done.  It is over.  One date and thats all I will get.
Perhaps because I am too responsable and too set in my ways.  or because there was no spark.
I will not get a 2nd date because I am not a Cowboy, who runs wild and free. 
Yet I can be your best friend, I can be your pal.  I can be your crying shoulder tonight.
