Forever loving you

Pain of losing,

Pain of being alone,

Pain of being without you.

Those summers where i share laughter's with you,

Now is just a fading memories.

Those day when i wake up in your arms,

Now is just a cold empty sheets.

Those days when i wish that we will belong forever,

Now im alone.

No matter how hard i cry everyday and plead for you to come back,

all i get is a sorrowful wind that send shivers to my bones.

When you gone,

i lost everything,

it's like nothing is matters to me anymore.

i was nothing before i meet you,

im alone and lonely,

you give me light and warmth,

but now its all taken back away from me.

The source of the lights in my life is gone,

you're gone.

Whenever i try to be with you,

in a verge of ending it all.

i remember when you hug me in the bathroom,

soothing me when im crying,

when im angry.

Your words are still fresh in my minds.

It's like you were there,

like you never left.

But when i wake up,

its still white and empty.

You said to me that you'll come back every time that you gone,

but the last words you said to me that day is,

"Don't wait for me, i love you"

But my dear, i will always wait for you.

No matter how long you're gone,

no matter how long i'll live,

in the end we will be together again.
