Hey
Hey there, it's been a while.
Am I already forgotten?
Months and months have passed,
Without a single word between us.
Every day that goes by, my heart becomes a little stronger.
Or maybe, more fragile?
Regardless, they're the same.
I still see your smile,
It never seems to fade.
Your sparkling eyes that shined too bright,
Haunt my every joyful moment.
Pain reaches its peak when I remember your distant looks,
I used to be confused at the shot of sadness within my heart,
Now, the reason is known.
It wasn't my concern for you, oh, no.
It was due to the understanding that your mind was somewhere else,
Your eyes were gazing upon another thought,
Of more importance than I.
I used to wonder why.
Did you ever really care?
Was it all a façade?
It must be; or else you'd still be here.
I'm just struggling to swim my way through this sea,
These vast amounts of water that I'm sure are suffocating me.
My thoughts, my questions, my pain, all seem to taunt my existence.
"What really matters without him here?"
And thus, my happiness caves,
Replaced with dark depression.
