"Once I Loved..."

Once I loved like no other…
We started as strangers to one another
She wasn’t my type
Not even once did it occur to me that something was going to happen
But then, it did
I began to like her, fall for her, then to love her
I tried everything
But to no avail
I can say I failed… miserably
But not for this
But rather for the pasts
For I then realized
That for once, I loved like no other…
For it was the only time I did love….

And I’ve always reminded her of the moon
Once, I explained why…
But then I gave her the wrong reason
So, just in case you want to know why,
For it is because…
I love her all the way to the moon and back.
