What if I told you I still love you?
Would you change your mind and find your way back to me?

Would you miss the smell of my perfume?
Would you want to hear the sound of my voice again?
Would you feel sympathy about my pain?
Would you care about how much Im hurting?
Would you think about knocking on my doors and comfort me with your hug?
I want to know because Im sick and tired of guessing.

Im tired of wondering if I ever cross your mind.
And Im tired of wondering if I still have a place in your heart.
If you feel it, you would know it still beats for you.
It still calls your name especially when its lost.
It makes itself believe that youre still its caretaker.
I spend so much timethinking about youinstead of looking for someone else or entertaining someone else.
Everything would feel right if only you were just within my reach.
Maybe I would smile ten times brighter every day if you were still here.
I would be brave enough to speak my truth if you were around to encourage me.
I would live life without fears if only you were still in love with me.
Because youre living miles and miles away from me.
And Im afraid your heart is beginning to wipe me out of its memory.
I keep telling myself lies about how you no longer have an impact in my mind.
My mouth wouldnt immediately become dry every time somebody says a name that sounds like yours.
Maybe youre still the one I want to introduce to my parents.
Maybe my friends were wrong about their judgements against you after all these time.
And maybe my gut has been right ever since we first caught sight of each other.
I know youre already distracted about creating a new life without me in it.
But what if I told you Im still so into you?
Would you drop everything thats in your hands and rush to kiss me on both cheeks?
Would you say that you love me too?
I hope your answer is yes.
I hope theres still a piece of me that youre keeping.
I hope you remember me when you accidentally see a moon at night.
I hope you feel my longing for you on the other side of the world.
I am done pretending I dont think about you anymore.
Because honestly, youre the only one who consumes my mind on a Sundaymorning, when everyones still sleeping.
Our memories together still appear in my dream once in a while.
The details of your face are still stuck in my head like the lyrics of my favorite pop song.
Im waiting for the day when the world will make a way for us to meet again.
