Once is enough

I don’t need the world to pause for me
I don’t need the stars to shine
All I need is one small moment
Where your shadow crosses mine

The way you walk feels softly written
Like time slows down for you
Every dream I ever carried
Feels complete when I do

Thanu, the way you move so slow
That gentle curve, that graceful flow
If I see it once, just one soft view
That alone would be a lifetime win too

I don’t need forever, I don’t need a sign
Just one moment frozen in time
To witness that beauty, pure and true
Would be my life’s achievement — you

Your waist draws lines the moon can’t learn
A quiet rhythm, calm and sure
Not meant to shout, not meant to prove
Just something rare, something pure

Even the air feels more careful
When you pass it by
Like it’s afraid to break the art
You leave behind

No touch required, no words to say
No promises to hold
Just standing still and breathing in
A moment worth more than gold

Thanu, the way you move so slow
That gentle curve, that graceful flow
If I see it once, just one soft view
That alone would be a lifetime win too

No trophies shining, no halls of fame
Nothing else would feel the same
To witness that beauty, calm and true
Would be my life’s achievement — you

Some dreams don’t ask to stay
They just want to be seen
Some moments don’t need more
One glance is everything

If fate gave me one single frame
It would be you walking away

Thanu, even once beneath the sky
Watching your silhouette pass me by
I’d carry that sight through all my days
A quiet victory, silent praise

No crown, no prize could match the view
No record written could feel this true
To see that beauty just once come true
Would be my life’s achievement — you
