Even though my heart keeps telling me the truth,
I feel as if you will never come back in my life.
My thoughts cannot even register that fact right now.
My mind cannot erase your appearance completely.
Even if someone is approaching me,
I see you in front of me.
My body cannot escape from the loneliness you left behind.
Even if I am surrounded by a crowd,
I feel as if I am the last person in the world.
My eyes cannot stop dwelling in that beautiful dream.
Even though you are too good to be true,
I feel as if you were just a hallucination.
My heart cannot forget the few happy moments we had together.
Even though your love is only a part of my life,
I feel as if your absence makes me empty.
Even though my heart keeps telling me the truth,
I feel as if you will never come back in my life.
My thoughts cannot even register that fact right now.
Even though my thoughts are racing in my head,
I feel as if I cannot go through one more vacant night.
My smile cannot appear on my face ever again.
Even though we met in a midst of laughter,
I feel as if the departure of my soul has occurred.
My future cannot be what I dreamt it would be now.
Even though our love has lasted days,
I feel as if I had a sea of happiness with you.
My life cannot be the same without you.
Even though there is a long distance between us,
I feel as if you are always by my side.
My love for you cannot fade away, I promise.
Even though my heart keeps telling me the truth,
I feel as if you will never come back in my life.
My thoughts cannot even register that fact right now.
