It was a long and winding road of pain in May
When I see you smiling at me with sun’s beautiful arrays
I thought you will come to me
But you ended saying “I am no longer happy”
Your eyes showing the truth
Your smiles telling don’t lie
That night, I deeply cried
Because you said “I am no longer your dream bride”
In the midst of uncertainty, I am sitting beside the sea
Thinking lots of questions with a cup of tea
As the wind is thoroughly blowing,
With my two bare hands, the tears are continuously flowing
As I laid my head on a thousand stars
I watch you walk away and leaving my heart with hundreds of scars
As the waves mesmerized my soul,
I gradually close my eyes and started to free fall
Some say it’s painful to wait for someone
Some say it’s painful to forget someone
But the worst pain comes when you don’t know whether to wait or forget,
And I choose to forget you even there’s no reason if forgetting is long past due
You seem happy with someone else hand
I think this is the right time to start moving forward
Ohhh, maybe you are my greatest love
Yet, you are my greatest pain..
Thank you, but I have to close the chapter of me and you….
Several months had passed by
I feed my soul, my heart, and my mind with peace and love
My darling, I refuse to wither and sorrow
Coz I choose to bloom and carefully grow
The heaven poured bountiful blessings in July
The flowers were swaying gracefully
The clouds and greeny plants were dancing happily
I heard a certain voice that my eyes fell in a deep hall
Someone was coming into my senses,
“Hey, your eyes look in saddened and weary,”
“Your face shows hesitations, confusions and dreary”
“Could I plant healing words in your wounds? Again?”
Huh! You uttered words that I have never been heard to you
You, the one who left me hanging in the middle of night dim sky
You, the one who forget me over a 2 month-girl with brown eyes
You, the one who destroyed my world into pieces
You want to come back with full of lies and resentment
You want to start again after you left me alone?
You want to be happy again as I am still drowning in sadness and self-worthlessness?
How unfair the world is, right? How could you do that without any regrets of letting me go?
In every room of our time together, there is a box of memories we shared,
Now is the time to pack away and spared
To the things that we once had together
My love, my darling, my one thing, but goodbyes are better for everything
It is really a heartbreaking moment to throw goodbyes
To someone who once became your one and only one
Hopefully, we will not be alone for so long
And find the happiness that will never decay
Even separating our world and letting go are the only ways.
“Springs and sparkle are done
Now, the time we should walk the Earth with different paths and we were forgetting….
the butterflies, the storms, the life, and the love we once dreamed for.”
