All these bruises, yet still not enough as evidence.
Just because I can't show you doesn't mean it invalidates the truth.

All these months of torture and agony, for all the efforts to remember your name...
I still lost you.

You who came with tears in her eyes,
You who swept me with love,
Gone in the fog of my memories.

I wish we could have had a better end.
Not a bitter end.

Same things of different expectations,
I guess it is still accepted as an end.

The end was still clearly written in the last chapter.
You could've added a prelude before the end.

You said you'll wait and that you could still remember me.
Guess what?
It's all reversed now.

I who suddenly remembered you.
You who faded away from me,
Now explicitly as blue as the sky.

The sad part is...
I'm still accused of fooling you,
Calling me a jerk in many ways.

But I can't say you're entirely wrong either!
In fact, I'm that jerk who was a coward.

The truth is I already remembered you.

After that accident ever happened,
I screamed your name at the top of my lungs.

But the difference is...
You did not hear me.

Just me and my cat, somber through the night.

I wish we didn't say goodbye.
I wish I didn't say am fine.
I wish I did not carelessly tell you.

Low for am a bolder mess.
Sorry for disturbing you again.

That I'm sorry for what you have been.
Guilty even for those things I did.

But all I can say is: "I remembered now."

Are you being taken good care now?
Is he not a jerk like me?
Or are you being with him just because?

Well, you don't have to answer, it's not like I could hear you even.

 All of the words you said didn't count,
Just empty words from a wounded heart.
I'm right? Do I?

All these months of torture and agony, for all the efforts to remember your name...
I still lost you.

Maybe if I did not have that accident, I probably could still call your name.
Or maybe if I kept you beside me while going through my trials,
Would I ever still be in your grace?

But all I can say is: "I remembered now."

So I patted my cat while telling myself to just go on and continue.
Swept away by you, now void of you.
Hollowed out for not properly taking care of us.

I took a big breath as I gazed at the stars, closing my eyes.
This is the end...

In exchange, someday when you are ever in need of help I'll spare no hesitation to help you.
That I promise and swear to do.

Someday...

You, part of my grayed memoir.

No!
Actually, all that I have said is bullsh*t!
I just want to scream and shout...

I'm back!
But...

Yeah, you are gone.
