No, It’s Not Easy

Loving you from afar is never easy. I always find myself looking for your face, your scent, your familiar being, in a crowd full of stranger. And I can never find you.

But I thank God for that.

It’s a Date

One of the conversations we had:
“Remember, this is not a date. This is just a hang out on a Saturday kinda thing. Between friends.”
“You sound paranoid, did you know that?”

Do you believe in soulmate? I do.

It’s you.

The Ring

I have tried to eliminate one of the things you’ve promised me off my mind. One of the things that mattered the most. Until it was proven poisonous, toxic, and dangerous to my well-being. So I bought two for myself yesterday.

I. bought. TWO. RINGS.

Does it help?

NO.

Thanks, by the way.

Hey, just wondering, when you made all those promises, did you cross your fingers behind your back?

I think you did.

Memories

I remember everything. Every promise, every moment, every sweet words. I remember everything.

How I wish you said nothing.

Waiting

You asked me to wait at the end of the bridge. And I did. But you never showed up.

Haunted

It haunts me. It haunts me in the daylight, it haunts me when the sun sinks in the horizon, it haunts me in my nightmare.

You haunt me.

Why?

And then of course, you left. And I’m trapped.

One Fine Day

Where are we going?

To the future, you said.
