This deep, emotional song tells the heart-wrenching story of a man's unrequited love for a woman he meets in group therapy. Through shared experiences and heartfelt conversations, their bond grows strong, but tragedy looms as he eventually learns the truth behind her pain and her ultimate fate. The chorus emphasizes the fragility of love and the importance of cherishing those we hold dear, reminding us that life can change in an instant.
Verse 1:
In a circle, hearts unspoken, sharing woes,
A man with dreams, a heart half-open, just a rose.
He sees her there, a light in the shadows, strong and bright,
But how do you catch a star that sparkles in the night?
Slow whispers, mending spirits with every line,
Conversations flow, her laughter intertwined.
He finds comfort in her stories, woven from pain,
Yet in his chest, a fire burns, soft as rain.
Chorus:
Cherish the love you hold, don’t let it fade away,
Life's unpredictable, like the night turns to day.
Tomorrow’s never promised, tomorrow's never free,
So hold on to the moments, before they cease to be.
Verse 2:
Days turn to weeks, friendships evolve,
In silent glances, emotions resolve.
Shared coffee cups and memories beneath the stars,
He feels the weight of love, but fears the scars.
Confessions on rainy nights, stories on repeat,
But every word unspoken feels like a defeat.
He watches her smile, yet shadows lurk in her eyes,
Every laugh a mask for her uncried sighs.
Chorus:
Cherish the love you hold, don’t let it fade away,
Life's unpredictable, like the night turns to day.
Tomorrow’s never promised, tomorrow's never free,
So hold on to the moments, before they cease to be.
Verse 3:
Finally, one night, wrapped in the moon’s glow,
He gathers his courage, lets his true feeling flow.
"I’ve loved you in silence; you’re the light in my dark,
But if I never tell you, how will you know my heart?"
Her eyes glisten, tears fall like rain on the ground,
She breaks down softly, a heart that’s tightly wound.
"It’s not you, my love, but shadows from my past,
I’m haunted by demons, and my first love didn't last."
Chorus:
Cherish the love you hold, don’t let it fade away,
Life's unpredictable, like the night turns to day.
Tomorrow’s never promised, tomorrow's never free,
So hold on to the moments, before they cease to be.
Verse 4:
Days march on, heart heavy with regret,
He turns to the screen, finding answers unmet.
An online post, her name, cold words that cut deep,
A haunting reminder of the secrets she’d keep.
They say she went quiet, too tired to fight,
A tragic goodbye, stolen by the night.
Raped as a child, she bore the pain alone,
The love they could’ve shared, now set in stone.
Chorus:
Cherish the love you hold, don’t let it fade away,
Life's unpredictable, like the night turns to day.
Tomorrow’s never promised, tomorrow's never free,
So hold on to the moments, before they cease to be.
Outro:
In every whisper, every laugh, she’ll remain,
A lesson in love, a history of pain.
Life’s so fragile, like petals blown by the breeze,
Cherish every heartbeat, every moment, do it with ease.

“I want you to write a song that tells a deep, emotional story about a man who falls in love with a woman who seems out of his reach at first. Over time, they form a meaningful connection through conversations and shared experiences. He never makes any romantic moves at first, but his love for her grows. Eventually, he confesses his feelings, but she breaks down crying. Later, he learns through a online post that she rejected him because she was raped as a child and now she killed herself. The song should have multiple detailed verses that paint a vivid picture of their relationship, from the beginning of their friendship to the tragic revelation. (they met in group therapy) The chorus should focus on cherishing love while you still have it, because life is unpredictable, and you never know when it might be too late.”
