No goodbyes just see you later

It's pretty hard thinking where to post this entry... its a poem/story so yeah... I was supposed to post this as a story but it will be hard to put the forewords and stuff so I'll put this as an entry instead.

Plot:  I did say this was a story in poem form so of course there's a plot. The guy (I imagine this as TVXQ's Changmin) accepted the offer for him to study abroad (masters probably) leaving his girlfriend of a few years behind. She (let's name her YeonHee) supported her boyfriend's decision and smiled the whole time.

This would be in YeonHee's point of view.

 

how can I force myself to smile
when the tears continuously flow from my eyes
can I continue to lie and say I am all right
even if my heart is breaking
Just to see you smile for me one last time

I know you had to do things on your own
I tried to understand and yet it still pains me so
to respect your decision is to allow myself to hurt
but since I love you…I’m going to let you go
it pains me so much but for you…I’m willing to sacrifice

When you were about to leave I said I was fine
Even when my heart was slowly breaking
I tried my best to fake a smile for you cause I don’t want to be your burden
I held on until you turned your back and slowly walked away
then the tears I was holding fell silently

I can only stare at your back as you slowly disappeared from my sight
It was then that everything came sliding down at me
although you promised me you’ll be back for me
somehow the image of your slow ly disappearing back told me you might not
I believe in you but something tells me I shouldn’t hope anymore

And so I watched, as the plane you rode completely disappeared
Several people have arrived and left but I could not get myself to walk away
I just stood there staring like an idiot at the clear blue sky
Waiting and hoping for a miracle of any kind, silently praying that this is just a dream
just a nightmare and that you were still here with me

A good half hour passed and I finally got myself to walk out of there
You’re really gone… this is no nightmare
I wiped the tears off my eyes and forced myself to smile again
You are pursuing your dreams so I have to pursue mine
Let’s take our time improving ourselves until we finally reunite

I paused once more and stared at the sky then whispered the words I wasn’t able to tell you
Take care of yourself while we are apart
Remember that there’s a girl who is patiently waiting for your return
Come back to me when you are ready, when you feel that you can be proud of yourself
And when that time comes… I’ll welcome you with open arms
