Forget Youn't

It was supposed to be our first meeting,

and yet I was certain I've known you

from the moment our eyes met.

Familiar scenarios with you then flashed in my mind.

The two of us used to walk home while we held hands;

You bought me my favorite burger when I fell sick;

And I loved it every time I pinch your earlobes because it's squishy.

We've done a lot of things, and this is exactly why the hole in my heart that was left by you can't be filled.

You wore an iron face and stared at me with those cold eyes, to what seems like a stranger in front of you. 

I'm now a person who won't even cross your mind even before and after you sleep.

To think that for you to get away from me is what I used to want,

I'd be lying if I said I'm glad you finally forget of my existence because this is never fine.

But just like what happened to us, this lingering regret will not last. 

I'm just content with shrouding myself in those memories. As it is the only thing that I hold on to make me warm and 

Keep me reminded, that I am once loved by someone like you.
