I may be in the other side of the world,
Under the same sky as you are;
But know that I thought of you,
Despite being so **** far.
It has been 7 long years,
Will time allow for us to meet again?
It feels like we’re strangers now,
not close to call it even “just friends”.
How long shall I wait?
Time is ticking all the time;
Hope you are feeling the same——
Wanting to have you or be called, “mine”.
What would have happened
If you have just stayed?
Would our relationship grow more?
Would you still look in my way?
I’m sorry for back then,
when I tried to ignore you;
I was in a state of denial,
because I have grown fond of you.
I love you.
There’s this boy I used to like back then in the 6th grade. We were more of enemies but later have grown to be friends. He left the country when I was in the 8th grade and at that time, I already had feelings for him. I thought it was just a one-sided crush but a few years later, I heard from a friend that he also liked me back then; our feelings were mutual. And somehow hearing that got me thinking like, “what if he just stayed here? what would have happened between us?”. So I was inspired to write this poem. Hopefully someday our paths will cross in the future.
