i thought for once that forgetting you
was the hardest thing i will ever do
little did i know that going back
to the way i used to be
before you came
will be harder
that i am still here
trying

may you continue
reaching your dreams
even if sometimes
it is too far
even if sometimes
it is too hard
may you never get tired
of moving forward

when you call her love
do i ever cross your mind?
how we exchanged wishes to the ocean and sky above
that may we meet one day hug each other tight

when you call her love
do i ever cross your mind?
how i wrote poems for you
and how you also make one for your sweet reply

when you call her love
do i ever cross your mind?
because that love used to be me
i am once your galaxy, once your sunshine

maybe it's just right
if i tell you the truth
you are loved
you are valued
you deserve all the good things  in the world
it's okay to be sad
it's okay to be angry
your feelings are valid
don't let the world tell you otherwise

is happiness a goal we ought to achieve
or a choice that led us chase our dreams?
do we achieve greater things in order to be happy
or are we happy that we continue our fantasy?

when life seems too tough
remember to look back
and see how far you made
in this journey of life
give yourself a smile
some pat on your shoulder
and whisper to yourself
"you are doing great,
tomorrow is another chance to be better"

living in a world
where giving up is not a choice
is indeed cruel
suffocating and absurd
pushing one's limit
to reach a goal
leaving yourself empty
a burned-out soul
