rachanne - Hello Poetry

When I first heard of you being with her, I didn't bother myself so much. I didn't think much about it because I knew it was never going to be me. I told myself, "You don't have the right to get hurt because there was never anything between you." Five months after that news, we were both in a party hosted by a common friend and the universe, with all its funny jokes, made it happen so that I was sitting right in front of you, with her next to you. Looking at you both, it hurt me so much. I told myself, "I'm lying to myself because I knew there was something between us before there was a him and her." I couldn't look you in the eyes. It was the saddest party I ever went to.

The first time I admitted to myself that it actually hurt.

if you think of me, i hope you remember me as that friend who was there for you all the time, without asking anything in return, partly because i know you couldn't have given me anything in return. i would have to beg. that's how you are.

if we walk together, i will leave the hand closest to you out of my pocket in case you want to hold it. but i remember how you told me you want to feel up my thighs. i will sit next to you instead and place your hand on my thigh. you make me tremble.

you never had me, or rather, i never had you. but i was always yours. since the beginning, since the day you talked to me at the seminar room. i remember how you looked - your eyes and the way you spoke - even in that dimly-lit room i saw you clearly. i see you clearly.

memorizing the details of that one afternoon - cold room warm hands heartbeats in chaos - this will haunt me for lifetimes.

Someday, I'm going to ask you about the truth. Why you drowned me along with you, why you never called me by the nickname you gave me anymore, why you made me believe it is me you will always return to. Why can't I let you go?

It's you, who came back for me after that time I got left behind on the subway. It's you, and that tiring walk up the snowy hill, and then feeling incredibly relieved when we reached the top. It's you, and that time you held my hand because I was scared of the ride. It's you, and the many things you told me about the Han river. It's you, and your curly hair under that green bonnet you always wore. It's you, who always looked out for me, and for everybody as well. It's you I cannot forget.

It's not the place I cannot forget.

I went out with you alone again and we talked about lots of things - things which I hope you talked about only with me. I was sipping my green tea latte and when I looked up at you, I looked at you differently. I never admired your eyes before, but now I thought, "Heck, what a shame if we couldn't be."
