The path that I once took

XI

I hold your hand not because I am scared,

I hold your hand because I feel protected.

I say "I love you" not bcoz you are good for me.

I say "I love you" because you accepted me even with my flaws.

I say forever not bcoz we are meant to be together

I say forever because no matter what, we know we will always be for each other.

I want to spend time with you not bcoz I am free

I want to spend time with you bcoz I want to make memories

that I could look back and see.

I cry on your shoulder not bcoz I expect you to comfort

I cry on your shoulder bcoz I feel lonely and upset.

Feelings come from deep inside,

 which are difficult to hide.

There can never be anyone else for me,

whose eyes I could look into and flee.

You light up my life when you are with me,

who could fill my heart with endless glee.
