Just a repost. I kind of edited this, deleted those stupid author's note I did. (Wow, I'm calling myself stupid. -facepalm-) I used to write this two years ago for my English project.
Also, I'm not back... yet.
When the day that I dreaded to happen came true,
I lost my courage to trust them
And my heart was shattered into pieces
One by one, until there was nothing left in it
I knew they were lying in my face, and so I escaped.
-x-
I let myself drown into the world of loneliness
Where there's no laughter, no smile nor happiness
No love, no admiration nor peace
No more peaceful family that I yearned for.
-x-
I regretted being cute and small
My heart started to freeze, and never to melt
I told myself not to cry
Even if it was meant for me to face the fact and accept it
Even if I tried my best, and got nothing but regret
I wanted to let them know how I truly felt.
-x-
But then there was this boy who appeared before my presence
This boy whom I despised for a reason
But truthfully, that hate is just a disguise
Slowly but surely, we got along as a friend.
-x-
He asked me what's wrong, and I told him all
He listened for a good time and nodded his head
Then he caressed my cheek
And told me it was okay to cry.
-x-
This is what he told me, "It's not all tears that suit you. It's a smile."
With those words, I successfully reached out to him
And eventually, I found my own courage and happiness
That was once lost
After all this time, I vowed not to be lonely again
As long as I'm living in a world full of truth and lies
As long as he stays by my side.
-x-
When the day I long to happen comes true,
My heart begins to mend itself slowly
It isn't because of the courage and the happiness he gave me,
It was because of him I grow to love more than a friend.
