What a Way to Start Off the Year

Sunday evening and in my room,
Talking with your sister
Why did you leave so soon?
I was never quite close to her
As much as I was to you.
I looked through my window that night,
And stared straight at the moon.

She had to depart later,
You're in the back of the truck
I said hello to your family
And I thoughg that it was goodbye.
But your brother rolled up the window,
And thought I'd regret not saying hi.

But I mustered all my courage
And did the most stupidest thing of all
I jumped up to the window
And almost yelled out
"Stop! "

"Hi," I said, shaken
And your brother came to a halt
He lowered down the window again,
And gave your shoulders a jolt.
"Say hi, " your brother said,
You took your headphones away
And looked up,
Your eyes locking with mine
As you spoke the word, "Hey!"

I'm shaken up,
Your voice sends shivers up my spine
I feel the goosebumps on my arms
Haven't heard your voice in a long time.
I said, "Hey."  once again
What a stupid thing to do.
I stepped a bit back and then confirmed
I was still in love with you.

I can feel everything-
Every moment, every laugh, every smile-
Everything comes back to me, 
My heart beating
A million miles an hour

Your sister is at the backseat now,
My sister tells me she wants to go inside
I felt relieved, yet sad at once
Now that the moment has died.

She dragged my hand towards the door,
I saved goodbye to you all, suit
And I heard a discrete individual goodbye,
As I looked down at my boots.
I waved goodbye to you, individually
But I didn't look back,
Cause I knew I would miss you
Unconditionally
And I can't wait to see you again

I ran inside the bathroom,
And wrote before I broke down
My hands were shaking
All over my keyboard
As I fell down to the ground.
I dried my best to conceal the sounds
Of my shedding of tears
Oh, how I wish you would've stayed here.
What a way to start off the year.
