these past few nights
have been the hardest for me
the quietness of my room
without you is amplified
i find myself replaying memories
like it's a movie in my head
cherishing and remembering
the good times we had,
while questioning to myself
"what went wrong"
sleep becomes both an escape
and torture
as dreams of you often brings you
back to life, back to me
in my arms
only for the harsh reality
to hit harder upon waking up
the remnants of your touch
still lingers on my body
even if it has been months
from being touched by you

we were thrown out
our friend's place
you didn't feel like going home
i didn't feel like going home too

as we walk through the tunnel
not knowing what the night entails
walking side by side
sharing the same air

it was night time
the sky scattered with stars
you love stars, you told me that one time
so we laid down, stargazing

that night we talked about everything
listened to good music
spent the whole night till sunrise
familiarizing with each other

not knowing the importance
of that memory
the night we stayed
under the stars by the rocks

i hope i don't forget you
how you look,
the sound of your laughter,
the voice i know so well

i don't ever want to forget you
even when time passes by,
and my mind starts to forget you
i hope it leaves behind
the memories that we have made

just so i can relive them
and remember how you look,
the sound of your laughter,
and the sweet voice i know so well

as i open my eyes
the sound of silence
engulfs the room
no good morning text

as the silence continues
noises seep into my head
i give in
give in to the darkness

...

as i lay my head down
on this quiet, cold night
forcing myself to sleep
just so i can dream of you

dream of the memories we made
all the smiles and laughters we shared
dream of a beautiful future with you
dream until reality wakes me up
