Forever After

Believe me

When I tell this to you

Because I don’t exaggerate

My feelings.

Listen to me

Because I only choose

To tell you the truth.

We could’ve talked if we’d stayed

Closer

But we’re at least a thousand miles

Away and that’s the only thing that

Held me and kept me from

Seeing you.

We could’ve known each other in

A better way if we’d met

At those cafés

Even though I don’t savour

Coffee.

I’m not a person who loves to talk

At all times and I know that

I’d lose my temper when something

Unusual strikes me.

But I’d never turned you down

When you needed me to talk

And be serious for a while.

I’d never put someone else

In your place or considered

Someone else to be better than you

Or look at their way when you

Looked at mine.

You’re sacred and so was my love

Towards you

For you were the kind of person

I always dreamt about

Meeting in my life.

I feel guilty

For what I did to you

And for making your life

Much more miserable.

Also, I’m sorry

For intruding

I just didn’t know that

I wasn’t meant to be there.

I just like being myself and

Being serious about something

Isn’t in my blood.

I’m not perfect and

Nobody is and I think that

Idealising someone isn’t a

Great idea.

It’s better to tell someone that

They’re expected to do something

As they’ll never know what’s

Expected of them in the first place.

I’m always there to talk

If you find this to be relevant

And I’ll tell you whether this has to do

Something with your life.

I just realised that I’m trying

To prove something and

That’s evident here.

It’s not about who is older

Than the other

It’s just that we all learn

Everyday.

For now

I’d only like to tell you this

That you didn’t

Waste my time and

I wish I could see you and

Cheer you up for there’s

A whole life ahead of you.

You can never obstruct a river from

Reaching the sea for it can always

Find a way to flow

Even if you build a dam across it.

Whenever you think of me,

Just remember that we were just

Friends at the beginning

And it shouldn’t have

Turned that way in the end.

Whatever you’ve felt is really

Painful and I respect it

Because nobody would’ve

Dealt with it in the way you did.

You’re such a gem and you

Have your own way of dealing with

Your obstacles.

That’s what I admire about you.

It seems like my life is at a

Standstill

But whenever I think about

Everything that happened back then,

I’d say that

It was just love.

Love, like pure water.

Love,

Forever after.
