I was there, next to you, waiting for you to turn around
You let me be there, not even glancing, keep walking your path one step at a time
Nevertheless, I keep on trailing you
Because you are precious and I knew
Because I want you to see it too

One fine day, I found myself a little braver
I came up to you and knocked your door
I wasn't expecting you to let me in
Because to me, opening the door is enough
Because I knew what you've been through

Just let me see you
Let me look at you
So that I could be sure
That your eyes are running no tear

How I wish I could tell you
How much you mean to me
I had been saying those words though
But it had never made it through

The moment you let me walk next to you, I feel like the world is mine 
I thought the heavens has blessed me just by letting me to silently be with you
I held out my hand, but you said you wasn't ready
It's fine
I've waited for so long, this is nothing new

After a while, you took my cold hand 
The moment that I wish would never end
You start talking, and I said I believed you
I really do
Even though others don't, I do
I did and I still do

We started creating our own little world
I'm happy, it's the truth
There's only us, and our own universe
In there, we are who we want to be
No one could take us down
I like it
I know you like it too
You are confident
You smiled
Because of that small little world
I loved it
I wish you could smile like that
Forever

Then it hit me
You aren't smiling for me
You are smiling for the side I created
A character that wasn't even me
What if, I can't be her?
What if, I won't be able to?
What if, I no longer want to?

Would you stop loving me?
Do you... even love me?

Choosing to leave, am I evil?
Is it selfish to meet you in the real world?
I am not leaving you
I never had and I'd never will

I loved the real you
I wanted to show others too
You don't need those masks to be loved 
The story is great, because I shared it with you
But why can't we cherish our actual moments?
Had  it never occurred to you that our real story need none of the fabrications?

I know it is complicated now
I'm sorry if it hurts you
But I  know this is it 
We have been dreaming, but now is the time to wake up
Because all I want to
Is for the dreams to be true 

Yours truly,

Someone beside you
