Yami

She was pretty, but she wasn't for me
First illusion
First lesson

I met her when the world went into lockdown
Screens lit up and the soul opened
She was older, with a voice of silk and honey
Like a dream I never reached

I was a child, eager to feel
She is a mystery difficult to describe
I was excited, I confess without fear
But the story wasn't a love story

He wanted me to be the other person in his song
To be his shadow, his escape, his distraction
But I, wasn't born to be a second choice
Although I was young, I said no with my heart

I wasn't the only one drawn to its warmth
But I was the only one who said goodbye without resentment
I don't regret it, I learned from the pain
My first fall, my first value

The messages, the laughter, it was all real
But his game wasn't sentimental
It had an owner and yet it still sought more
I wanted to love, but I only learned to escape

I was immature, yes, but not blind
And although it hurt, I let go without attachment
My heart will not be filled, I prefer to be alone than to be a stranger

He wanted me to be the other person in his song
But I'm worth more than a chance
It wasn't love, it was confusion
And I chose dignity over passion

First illusion
But not the last love
Thank you for teaching me
What I don't want to be
