I remember days we spent together were joyful
and now I'm here alone
I don't know if I'll see you soon but,
I feel that my life is going through a lack of mellow
I prayed for things I don't belong but
I feel like I've lost my own
but in reality, I knew I owned your love but now
how much far away have you gone?
that's why adoring someone ain't easy but if you
start, it would be hard letting go

Sometimes we make memories in things, places, or anything
and lose em' like we never cared
but after the people who we made memories with
becomes a memory we won't be able to bear
we should know that loneliness hurts more than betrayal on earth
and there will be no lack of people to
find the mistakes you've done from birth


people might come and go in your life
but the memories made by then
persist in your mind, though it's good or not
I know that you have gone to a place darker or brighter 
that I can't follow
now when I turn back to see you I realize that you've gone too far
and I don't know where you are!
I'll try to sedate my heart with no war
and if God could forbid you from
leaving me there is nothing more I could care
