To the lover who was once mine,
How are you love?
I hope you're fine.
Are you still chasing your dreams?
Or have you found a maiden so fair?
Bet she's like a gemstone that's pretty rare.
Have you read my letters, dear?
I already sent you three
Perhaps you'll reply if they weren't from me.
Can you please give them a chance?
Just a peek will suffice,
Just please read them once.
How's life going for you?
Is it so good to be true?
Mine's a bit tiring you know.
I wish you're here,
Tapping my back, saying it's okay.
And we'll drank our problems away.
I'm here by the seashore, writing your name.
Looking at the untamed waves,
Hoping that you'll have a pretty fair game.
I always wonder while looking at the sky,
They look so vast and free,
So do I
I wanted to reach the clouds above,
Just like you did.
Is it really tranquil like what you've said?
I don't think I can find my peace anymore,
Love, I am so lost right now.
I don't even remember who I was before.
But I can't seek for your help, my moon.
Cause I won't grow if I depend on others.
So I am doing this on my own
If the time comes when we met,
You'll see me bloom once again,
Because I already faced my rain.
I want to be better,
Not for you, but for me.
So let's grow and be free, can we?
To the lover who was once mine,
That's you, of course.
I'll see you again when it's time.
