Unsent Letter - Hopeless Romantic v

Hi baby, how are you there in Australia?

I bet you're busy you haven't checked on me much

I still go back to the last text you sent me that night

Still wondering if it's actually you, the alcohol, or your diabolical mind

 

I stalked your instagram as usual this morning

Have to admit you're looking better with every new picture

Your friends are writing about missing you so much

Promise you'll put your new cooking skills to good use when you return

 

I got a call from Education Department recently

Got accepted to matriculation college out of our home state

They're sending me to Labuan, I'm leaving on June 3rd

It's not any closer to you, but I guess that's just fine

 

I have many interesting stories I wish to share with you

But I know you probably don't care about any of them

It's not as interesting as the stories your friends are telling

After all, I'm just a mere acquaintance you expect to come and go

 

The thing is, I've been thinking a lot about you lately

About the possibility of seeing you again when you return

But above all, how long should I hold onto this feeling

Desperately wanting to tell you how much I need you, but I can't

 

Five years is not a short span of time

Many things can happen, you might find someone there

I'm afraid I'll regret it if I never let you know

But if I do, I hope you won't avoid me out of discomfort

 

I'm still hanging with all the unanswered question

Maybe it's just me, but your gestures were always confusing

Sometimes you were intimate, sometimes distant

You get my hopes so painfully high just to watch as it crumbles down

 

Only time can tell how long I'll stay this way

But for now, it seems like we're drifting farther apart

Nevertheless, I hope you'll somehow look back

There's someone over here who's hoping you won't forget

 

We both have ambitions to achieve, and a lot more to live for

But deep inside, I want you to know I'm grateful I met you

If only you know you'll always be in my prayer

And how many times you have made me smile
