I miss the smile that hides a million tears
I miss the smile that drove away my fears
I miss the smile that tells me "it's okay"
I miss the smile that tells me you'll stay

I miss the smile that urged me to be the best
I miss the smile that taught how to rest
I miss the smile that gave me inspiration
I miss the smile I loved the most without question

Oh that smile, that precious smile
Take me back to your wondrous smile
Back when I didn't have anything
But it felt like I had everything

Separated by circumstances
I'm facing the consequences
I wish I could relive every moment
When life was good to me and I'm genuinely contented
I never meant to, but I failed to notice the struggles you've been through
I never meant to, but I left you all alone in the chaos that befell you
I never meant to, but I caused you so much pain and sorrow
I never meant to, but I took away the life that once blossomed within you
I walked the roads we used to take
Ponder on the conversations we used to make
Back when this emptiness isn't what I feel
Everything's so distant I sometimes wonder if it's real


How did you, the one who once shared my soul, become a mere stranger
It doesn't make sense that we can't be together
If only I could be there when you needed me the most
Then maybe I wouldn't feel so lost

I just wasn't finished loving you
.
.
.
.
Maybe I never will
It was an odd start with my anxious heart
But I figured I'd be seeing you so I won't fall apart
Time went by and all I did was stare at you
It's one of the usual things that I loved to do
But then, without a clue, you brought me to the library
Still can't believe I'm spending time with you casually
We talked, shared laughs, you smiled, and an my heart skipped a beat
I always dreamt of reliving those moments on repeat
Then you pulled out your phone and started drawing
Showed me three letters I didn't know the meaning
Then I saw you shaking a little and I instantly knew
But I'm still awestruck because it was a dream come true
I read "YES" and I don't know what to make of it
I didn't want to assume but I'm certain how fast my heart beat
And in the midst of my denial you assured me
We're officially together and my mind's screaming internally
We held hands and I couldn't say a thing
Words won't come out because I'm still processing
I don't even know if there are words that would suffice
But I know I am the happiest man, and no one can tell me otherwise
As we walked home doing our usual routine
I just can't contain the joy and contentment I have within
I remembered all the times we were together
And the moments we shared that I'll treasure forever
I silently promised I will never leave you on your own
And to always keep you happy and never make you feel alone
As we bid our goodbyes that unforgettable night
I kept thinking about us even after you faded from my sight

Now a year has passed and still to this day
That was still a promise I can never throw away
Today I commemorate that fragment of my being
But this time with tears of sadness and depression creeping
Because I have lost you despite of my efforts to keep you from leaving
As I struggle to remember who I was before you broke me
I am forced to live and accept the horrible reality
Why did you have to leave when everything's okay
The blissful moments we had you casually threw away
As I wish to reminisce the days when you were mine
Let me treasure the memories on the day before valentine
I want to see your eyes
in my smile always
but you make me draw
your happiness
with my tears!

Sweetie, I dream of you
every day and night
but I have no right
to love you yet;
Like I'm sunk in fears!

Do you remember me?
I still think of you
and my soul flies
to you with love
through the endless airs.

Could you answer me,
I request you, please!
Will you ever back
to my paradise?
Or you don't care?
From nothing to something
Is what he's been dreaming
An empty soul once wandering
Searching for meaning
Devoid of direction
Not a blow nor ambition
Until he found a destination
And sensed a tinge of emotion

Who is this goddess that stirs him so?
A picturesque lady the fates endow
Blessing in disguise, but little did he know
About the tragic curse at the end of this show

From nothing came something
Something he deemed worth treasuring
Became strong so he can keep protecting
The one thing that kept him going
But he was naive
For the life he chose to believe
Faded into something he cannot achieve
What's left of him was so lost, he cannot retrieve

"Why did you come to my life
If I'm going to lose you anyway?
Why did you nonchalantly throw away
The broken pieces I gave up to make sure you're okay?"
