Happy Birthday, Princess

...

 

It’s been seventeen hours and twelve days, since we said our last goodbye.

Since you were gone, I told myself that I could move on.

All that I needed was, someone like you to love.

But how could I forget, these is nothing, and I have checked,

not-a-thing in this universe that can take your place.

Because, Princess, Nothing Compares To You.

 

It’s a long way that we have walked, why should I now believe that we should stop?

And I have walked. A Thousand Miles I Have Walked,

just to be that man who didn't want to lose you.

Perhaps The Fault was in me.

But, Princess, I Just Don’t Want To Lose You.

 

Remember then, when in the August Rush,

I Drew You, to show my love.

For I had a reason to change, to be the perfect fit for your checklist, and The Reason was you.

And then you replied, by walking away a few miles.

We knew that this ain't true love yet, but you said you would Stay With Me.

And, Princess, why didn't you stay with me?

 

And how I wished for you to wake me up when all this ends.

And you woke me up before September’s end,

While I was still in bed,

Hoping to wake up with Amnesia.

Because, Princess, I was not fine at all.

No, I’m really not fine at all.

 

And then I woke up with Amnesia on a rainy October eve,

since you were just beside me, and that's all I need.

But then you asked me to not feel needed.

You told me to not love you so much.

But how could I not, when I’m Only Human.

And, Princess, I’m only a human.

 

On the day - a year back - when he was, where I am,

You told me that you felt nothing,

Like the nothing that compares to you,

for me.

Without a stab, I felt pain.

Without a wound, my blood started to drain.

My chest was heavy and I knew my heart was beating in vain.

But, Princess, how could I Make You Feel Something That Your Heart Won’t?

 

All this time that I have spent in wait of meeting this date.

17 hours and 12 days ago, I have missed my train.

The day that means more to me than to you,

How could I Let Her Go?

So Lets Be The Life Of The Party,

And remember to walk further more. Together.

Because, Princess, Happy Birthday To You :).

 

P.S. I Will Always Love You.

 

...

The words in Camel Case refer to our songs.

We stopped talking 12 days before her birthday, thus this poem.

Hope you liked it :).
