The days, the months, they play
With countless sunsets by the bay
And it was until one busy day,
That your name came into view again

The feeling was familiar
One where I was all smiles
But also where I was unsettled
And my deep thoughts, I wrestled

In the past, there was no spark
So I wanted to ignite it
There were things unsaid
So I wanted to say all of it

Our past was fleeting,
Yet filled with significance
Every instance, I treasure
My delight, I couldn't measure

I've sought to know your soul,
More than how I knew it in the past
And it is my everyday wish
To bask in what I greatly reminisce

Before, I thought I've seen it all,
But I thought wrong
Now I've seen the dark side,
The parts that you hide

In fear of being despised,
You showed me your worst
Your happiness was broken
Your solace was stolen

And through my inquiry,
I've thought so deeply
Though you've shown me the dark,
Anywhere with you, I'd still embark

This time, I am sure
Uncertainty no longer plagues me
With you, there's only security
With you, there's only joy

Try as I might, I couldn't show
For I yearned for love you couldn't bestow
So, sufferance is the only solution
And acceptance, the only resolution

All of this don't really matter
All but your happiness and your solace
For my love for you is noble
Not to cease as long as I'm able

You've been through blizzards,
You've fought inner demons,
You've had your share of misery,
Now you deserve your victory

This, I've accepted and thus I let you go
My heart aches, I admit it
But if we're not for each other,
Then so be it
