Say I forgive you

My dear love,

I have one thing to say to you

there is nowhere

where I can find

anything like you

or I rather not try to

When I am tired of

so many things around me

when I feel ‘low’ inside me

or when the time slaps me on my face

then I find myself so lonely

then

My love,

I want to come to see you

to say forgive me

because

I just don’t want to live in this despair anymore

I just don’t want to drown in my own tears anymore

I just want to lay down on your lap

like a Joey on his mother’s pouch.  

Today,

I regret every seconds,

when I was with you

I didn’t realize how precious you were

now I’m far away

And spend most of my splendid moments

Just thinking of your

Calmness, beauty, love, and warmth.

which has always pinned me down

no matter where I go

You always stayed inside me

If you are ever angry with me

and you just go away

leaving me alone on the shore,

I will keep waiting for you

until you come back and say

 love, I forgive you

My dear,

I cannot leave you

and you cannot escape from me

before, during, and after my existence

whoever I am,

Its just because of you

You are truly destined for me
