What would you say
if you caught sight of me
What would you say
to long hair that refuses to be cropped
to the protruding belly
and a weak smile
I hope you could say
"I miss you" or "hi"
What would you say
when you caught wind of me
afraid and scared to move on
yet hesitant to embrace you
What would you say
if I told you
"goodbye"

One day
You will someone to hold you in a tight hug
Their embrace
Will make you smile and laugh
Someday
On a cold winter day
They will wrap their jacket around you
And when summertime comes around
Someone will push you into the water
You will get mad
Until they jump in with you
When Valentine's Day comes
And you dreaded it with fear
Someone will have dinner ready
And your favorite candy
And when holidays are here
You can take them home to meet your family
And watch them embarrass you
One day
This will happen to you
And when that happens
Let it be

Everything leads back to you
No matter which path I take
I always find you
When I'm not looking
In time
I will surely find my escape
And run away

I like to sit down and watch indie films
Just to see how others view someone like me
The star that tends to be a loner
But eventually comes out of their shell
Due to love and support from people around them
I realise now that
I came out of my shell
A long time ago
With a wild woman at my side
A best friend who is quiet but strong
The attention seekers who have a lot of love to give
The wallflowers that are too shy to speak up
I knew them all
I was the star of my movie
I may not have a love interest at this point of the film
Or even in the end
But it is nice
My life is an indie film

I met a dumb boy a year ago today
And it feels me with memories that are bad and good
It is now that I find myself alone
With anger and sadness and bittersweet happiness
Because a lot can change in a short amount of time
You can lose track of the other
And not bother to call or text or leave a message
You can hope that one day
He will appear at your door
But he won't
You will find no one knocking
Because he did not come
The three knocks were in your head
The sound of him was your imagination
I listened to the revival of a holy ghost
Imagining you dancing around
Silly now, how I love the folk sound
Because you loved it
There was no we
It was only you and I
We dance alone
I met a boy a year ago today
And he left a long time ago

I forgot how to smile
The joyous feeling lost
Beneath time
I have been numb for so long
It is strange to make my heart happy
The laugh heard now
Is not the one you heard then
The smile you saw
Is not the same today
Nearly a year has passed
The origin of love is no longer relevant
I am finding objects in life to fill the void
Nothing has worked so far
Letters from the past should be burned
But I refuse
I was happy then
I will be happy again
Even if you will not make me happy again

Love me gentle
Be careful of what you say
Love me delicately
I break easily
Whisper innocently
All through the night
Keep close
As long as you can
Love me
