How i wished i was

A Happy Valentines to all. This was written for someone who can't celebrate it this very moment.



How i wished i was blind,
In my eyes, you mesmerized me,
I knew we couldn't be together,
But in my heart, you were all i wanted.

I told myself to forget ,
The vivid memories of our embrace,
Only if i could turn back time,
I'll turn myself away from you.

Day by day, I've grown with this familiar pain,
The silence and loneliness of my world without you,
The world tells me not to dream,
That theres no hope for you and me.

What's the use of my eyes,
When only tears trickled down,
Than to have you appear in front of it,
How i wished i was blind.

I see reflections of myself without you,
I hear footsteps of myself instead of yours,
If only darkness covered me,
At least the footsteps of others,
Will remind me of yours.

How i wished i was,
Even if the hands that holds me belong to others,
And the breath of others will seem like yours,
At least in this darkness,
Your presence forever lingers on.
