Haven'T Forgotten You
Sipping in solitude inaudibly,
I feel left behind like an orphan child,
Waiting for a stranger’s ride,
I was left on the front steps of someone else’s house and I’m left to be
An introverted child, brokenhearted, but slightly has a wild side
It’s as silent as the grave
I act as if nothing’s happening,
But commotion is surrounding me
As if I’m the ship,
Caught in the middle of the wistful, reckless waters
Train me to walk close behind you
I don’t want to feel…for you neither do I want to feel
This blasted bittersweet emotions,
Making me weep with many tears of bleakness
Hopelessly, I walk the mercy road alone,
Since no one’s willing to risk their lives for me..
What am I gonna do? Play the victim now?
I’d rather travel on my own
I’d rather disown this feeling I feel – it’s so real, you see?
Do you hear me calling to you desperately?
I’m losing my direction – I need you, reliable emerald compass you!
Who designed you so articulately?
Who found an emerald stone this beautiful?
Who granted me luck tonight? Can it be?
Can it really be you?
You haven’t forgotten me after all…
After all, I haven’t had a day without you racing through my mind
Now, you’re hidden gold – a fantastic, splendid find!
I thought I was blind…but your shine is making me blind!
I close my eyes in attempt to feel my way through darkness
I have found you…at the end of the tunnel…
I slip unto the sparkly pavement and we huddle
Underneath the bridge and the traffic overhead
You kissed me with hope pressed on your lips, flawless as ever –
I don’t feel dead with dread…I don’t feel like I’m…actually not losing my head!
When you leave my sight, the daylight dims
When you depart from the light, my heart feels unsettling whims
The river will keep on flowing as long as you position me next to glistening sunset
The atmosphere is changing and the wind is whistling its sad, sad tunes of regret
I’m a stranger to love, but it seemed like love met my eyes and I fell in love
Love at first sight is on another level of brilliance
Do tell me: are you an angel from up above?
Are you a tranquil, heavenly dove?
I don’t want to pretend that you’re here when I’m proven wrong…
Are you real or are you a fantasy?
This is not the end, so let me lend you a helping hand
The world will merrily share with us its happiness
A happiness that was unknown to me…
life’s an everlasting, admirable song
It’s well-written from the start
Keep spinning with me like a merry-go-round
If you refuse to do so, I’ll be left all alone in the abstract abyss
I’ll be dancing with my lonely ghost of a mistress…
I’m seeking to be with you
I'm in want to be like you
For future progress and also because
My heart has declared its love for you…
Didn’t you get the clue?
Haven’t you known long ago?
It’s a love, shimmering anew!
But, I gottah get a grip…
or we’ll never have the time of our lives forever,
You mend me like a wound on a soldier’s leg –
I’m unsure if you still love me,
however, you encouraged me to endure…
You’re not a curse…if that will make you feel better, not worse!
Let me repeat that with a little more emphasis – you’re not at all a curse
You’re a dream come true, a gift, an oath, a bliss-healing cure!
There’s a way for us to escape our mighty fearsome fates
We’re on thin ice – do you mind if I hand you a pair of skates?
Slipping and stumbling and falling on my bum,
Happily blushing and brushing it aside for a time
I feel like you have chewed me up like distasteful gum
I know we had a good time tonight,
but I want your night to be…well…sublime…
And let the time flip on like an ancient dime
I haven’t forgotten you – I’ll pick you up from the grime of the past
It’s time to be partners in crime!
My passion towards you is so extremely vast
