(what u did)    

I feel like I've seen you before,

It was that time I heard a knocking on my door…

But as strange as it seems,

I don't recognize you anymore.

You're not the same one from my dreams,

 the one I used to adore.

It's confusing yet alluring

how you even make my sentences sound like paradoxes.

And yet you just think it nonsense…

I linger on the thought of finding a way to the old you

The one whose smile is as fresh as a morning's dew…

That laugh, it sounds so familiar…

Come closer and let me hear you…

I sense a tone of excitement in your voice,

Oh how I wish I could drown the rest of this noise!

But wait, you're leaving me now. But how?

Can't you remain here for just a little while?

Stop!

Hold me one more time… lie to me.

Let me live, if not forever… just for now!

Oh but I see, it's not with me where you want to be.

I'm not the reason for your smile,

Now I realize I'm not even worthwhile.

Farewell, it was nice while it lasted…

I'll string my heart upon a fishing line,

 and you'll just watch with that sweet smile as I cast it…
