you're here
yet you aren't
your intent was so different from mine
damn i was so naive
only if you had asked me
to offer not only my body
but also my soul
would i have melted into
the warmth of you
please don't do something
that would hurt me
for your mere words shatter me

perhaps you are naive too
for you don't see
that others love you for a reason
yet here i stand alone
offering my worn-out self to you
without any reason
and when you get tired
you come to me with
innocence in your eyes
so i sit by you
taking away your darkness

what am i to you?
for when you come to me
my eyes rain
you've come
so would you stay a while
and ask me about my heart?
and just that
would make me a happy girl
once again

perhaps one day
you'll move on
and forget my name
and i'll still be right here
with the memories of you

look into my eyes
for you will see
the ache in my heart that i've been hiding
the ache that never escapes my lips
why is it that i have you
yet you are not mine
look into my eyes
once
