When Everything Glooms [One-Shot Stories Compilation]

Your Happy Silhouette

A blurry figure, a silhouette of you,
Run into my life out of a blue.
The pressure was so high,
You wiped it with a simple "Hi."

You made me confused, how?
But joy covers all brown.
A happy influence.
My favorite presence.

Days suddenly became interesting,
Works appear like blessings.
I was mad with everything that's giving me stress,
Suddenly I was taught how everything will be addressed.

You made me mumble, “Safe Haven.”
Around you near me was heaven.
A place where angels like you belong,
Fixed everything when you sing along.

You left without a goodbye,
It reminds me the first time you look into my eyes.
It showed a lot of things you can't tell.
So I assumed you'll never say the word of farewell.

I am sad because it's all temporary.
But I will forever hold every piece of your memory.
Our story chapters may be as short as five,
But I can't deny now the fact I tried to hide.

Love, it was real—every moment.
So, if we'll meet somewhere else again, let's make it permanent.
Enjoy every little detour of your peace,
While I'll keep every memory of your bliss.

A familiar figure, a fading silhouette of thy.
I will wipe the remaining tear from my eyes.
Because I know how wide your smile would be,
Whenever you see me happy.
