The truth is I love you,
I love you more than anyone else would
And I love you all the more
For loving me more than anyone else could.
I'm so glad we could save one another.



(2024 footnote this is one of the worst things I've ever wrote. A man in love is foolish as well as cliche)

He taught me to run
To disguise the most intimate parts of myself
To only love myself

You taught me to stay
To expose the most intimate parts of myself
To maybe love another

But now you and him are more similar than you know
Now I can stay
Now I can give the most intimate parts of myself
Now I can love another and myself

But it is not him,
And now it is not you
So now I say thank you and goodbye

Another rough draft...inspired by dreams that will never be real

I didn't want to let go...
of all of our memories
of the long lost nights talking
of the dreams we'd share to one another
of the interest that was once mutual.

I didn't want it to change...
at least not into this
i liked you so much
i couldn't tell you what this feeling is.

But you let me go, and I fell on your shallow ground...
i wasn't the prettiest, so you didn't want me
i wasn't the funniest, not entertaining
i'm not the most colorful, so you didn't see me
but you used to...what happened?

Yet, after I told you that I couldn't watch you disappear...
and although you didn't seem to care
somehow, i felt relieved.

Because it wasn't you that I was going to lose...
but just another part of me.
i saved my self, and i got away.
i truly cared for you
after all the things telling me not to...
and you let me get away.
thank you

I thought I was the only one
Who felt such insecurity
Who felt this pressure
Who felt so different

Then you showed me
You feel the exact same.
Thank you for saving us both

Time has passed so fast
Just like the seagull doing their migration
Moving from beach to beach
Across the sea
Trough the wind

Even people can change by the time
But look at those wilted flower
Why does we still called it flower?
Altough the flower has wilted
We still picturing as the flower still bloom
Feeling that ever exist still remains
What we feel inside was so real

We both have rights to be happy
If you're feel happy,
I'll be the first one who happy for you
Allow me to continue to admire you
Until you won't let me anymore
And let me say
"Thank you for finding me"

Maybe the person who I like it's you,
But I’m affraid it’s you who only exist in my imagination
