A Little Happier (a poem)
A Little Happier
A lot of time has passed
I have fallen out of love with you
But some memories still linger with me
That no matter how I force myself to forget
I can’t do anything
I am buried in their chains.
They are the times when we were together
When we walked through the vast field with our feet soaked in mud
When we walked along the quiet street, just the two of us
When we walked like soldiers while going to the mountains
And when we were there, the two of us together
Sitting silently beside each other
Nervous because deep in our hearts
We are hiding something so difficult to say.
They say that if your heart pounds when a person is near
And you get nervous when he gets nearer
He’s not the one for you,
Because if he’s really the one
You won’t be nervous at all
Because around him you’ll be comfortable
Beside him you’ll be at home.
I don’t believe it.
Because if we just worked it out
If we just overcame our fear
And told each other the truth
We could have been comfortable with each other
without hiding anything
without keeping anything.
If we just told each other the truth
You could have been my one.
But things didn’t turn that way
We were not fated for each other
You went your path
I went my path
And we won’t see each other again.
But then, there's something that I want to tell you.
I really loved you
And no matter how I force myself to forget
I just can’t.
Because you are
And you will forever be
a part of me.
Until now, I’m still thinking
What if we fought for each other?
What if we chose each other?
Would we become a little happier?
