Don'T Say Goodbye

The first time, we were strangers 
I tried all i could for attention 
But it looks like an intrusion 
But beliefs keeps me coming on
For I have never felt this way for anyone 

Our first date was like a jackpot 
Everyone could see the emotion
Facing you wasn't an easy move
My saliva almost left me 
I was speechless for I ran out of my rehears words 

The first peck left me in a state of wonders 
Cold was my companion all night as I ponder
Sleep was no where as I became a founder
Even as the thoughts of you drives me wilder

The moment we found ourselves under a roof 
That moment our speech connect to each other, 
The moment that we were side by side, 
And we both dossed off till dawn 
A moment worth than a billion tons of diamonds 

But then you disappears into tin air
You were nowhere to be found 
But my heart is still under your spells
Who could have won you in a short while 
Jealousy they say is the root of evil
But I can't stand it when it's you 

I can still smell the freshness 
The touch and the squeeze 
The smile, the laughters
The bond that we've had
And all I ever want is you again 

Anticipation of you is now my state of mind 
Just one hold of you became my wish 
For you have hooked my appetite away
For how much longer do you stay afar
While I wait for your return in disarray 
Please, don't say goodbye.
