A Letter To My Lover

Longtime no see,
No calls, no sms,
Never has distance been a barrier,
But this surely is,
Thoughts of you everyday,
Gazing at your lovely pictures all day,
Remembering the sweet memories we shared,
With hopes on seeing you,
Yet not knowing when,
Cos you're no more.

Now that you're no more,
Life meant nothing to me,
No chance to say goodbye,
No final hugs or kisses,
Though pretending not to love thee back,
But deep down me,
I felt the fierce burning fire of Love,
I made mistakes for no letting you know,
Never got a chance to show my love again,
Cos you're no more.

Crying all day and night,
For you to come back,
Looking North and South,
To see your traces,
My heart longing to see you,
To behold thy beautiful face,
And savour the sweet taste of thy kiss,
All this memories hurting me,
Causing my eyes to swell in tears,
Cos you're no more.

At first I never loved you,
Cos you were like a thorn in my ass,
But slowly you found your way deep inside,
Deep down my stony heart,
Building a love castle therein,
But I still pretending,
Showing no signs of loving you back,
Just to draw you closer to me,
Only not to see you again,
Cos you're no more.

Sleeping all nights with your picture,
By my side, sweet dreams of you and I,
Knock! Knock!! Knock!!!
Who's on the door?
Little did I know,
My long-awaited love will be back,
Gazing at your beautiful face,
With smile on your face showing off your dimples,
Running towards you for a hug,
All illusions, what a nasty dream,
TRULY YOU'RE NO MORE.
