We're back to those deep, sleepless nights
thinking about something. We just might
get into that kind of scene,
like in those love stories and movies.
I turned off the lights,
still wondering
out of all these billions of people,
Who could be my Mr. Right?

As I walk down the street, I see lovers
Kissing, flirting, hugging each other
and holding hands.
While I'm single, drinking liquor with my taken friends.
I pray to God in this crowd, who could be the man?

I walked out, leaving those neon lights
and the signage that says, "Lover's Motel Bar."
I bitterly drove my car,
and stopped over a dimlit place to look at the skies.
And there I saw a shooting star.
I closed my eyes and wished.
How did my hopelessness gone this far?

I always give my all,
but they always fall...
Fall out of love of me.
I doubted my worth.
This world is fast pacing, this world is too cruel.
I just want someone who can hear my call.
Am I not enough?

I waited for years,
Been through with so many heart breaks,
and cried a lot of tears.
I've been enduring the pain
and fighting my fears.

I saw a silhouette of a man coming near.
I can still remember the words he uttered,
"Hey! Are you okay?"

"I've been watching you for quite some time today
you're always stopping by.
What a waste if a beautiful lady like you always cry.
I've been admiring you but I'm too shy.
Maybe we could give it a try?
Let's be lovers and have fun like everyday is 4th of July! "

"And that's how me and your father met. "
I told my three kids listening to me with awe.

A catastrophical love story
can turn into a fairytale ending
if we'll just wait for the right person
and not take things for granted.

After the rain, there will always be a rainbow
with it's bright pigments shining above,
reminding you that after the sadness,
there will be hope.

"You've been telling that story for the 100th time. "
My husband came.
I hugged him and he kissed me on
the forehead.
"They always ask me to tell it. "

I've been broken hearted
and now, I'm happily married
with the man I saw that night
on a dimlit place he came
and gave light to my life.
