should I start from the very first time that our eyes meet or should i keep this straight forward to the time where you have let go of my hand?
or maybe i must start this to the first time that you smiled at me
do you remember the time when you started taking to me as if we’ve known each other for a long time. as if you know my favorite color or my favorite time of the day. as if you know my favorite movie or my favorite song. those times, i see things slightly in a different ground.
remember the time when we exchanged lines like "how are you?" "what’s up?" "how’s your day?", lines with no ends. lines of the two souls, wandering and roaming at 3 o cock in the morning, lines where there’s no limitations, and lines that didn’t know how to sleep. I bet my lines were kinda amazed by you 'cause she knew how sleepyhead i was..
I didn’t recognize that i get used to it until your lines became the lines that i have always wanted to read. until your lines always came across my mind and it goes down accelerating my blood through my heart. your lines that took me to wander around during the late darkest night. i didn’t care. i even did not care about the lines of my best friends who keep on telling , “be careful, m” , “be aware of what you feel 'cause we both know how what might happen” those were the lines of my best friends that i ignore. i simply smiled at them, reassuring them that i’m gonna be happy, and i’m gonna take the risk
and here comes the cold lines, implying something. the lines that you didn’t bother to say what it truly means. then another cold line came, but i kept mine in the same invigorating way. i kept my lines jolly in hope that it might change yours. but confusion surfaced from those lines. maybe i already knew, i just didn’t believe what i knew cause i kept on coming back to the lines that i fell in love with.
your lines became poison to my heart and my lines became dark
shall i start now with the time when you said "thank you," while i end it with a "goodbye."
