To the Last Star
“As the day grows old,
I imagine us with the flowing time,
together and forever,
till the last star in the sky
burns down to oblivion.
Seeing you makes my heart wonder
if there is someone who can come close
to the beauty that you hold.
Experiencing this cruel world
reminds me of the peaceful time
I had spent with you—
you were my safe place,
where I could rest after a tiring day.
But tonight, I am here,
reminiscing about the days we spent together,
just seeing your pictures
to freshen the memories of us.
Although it’s been about a year,
my heart has still not been able to forget you.
It’s true that I always seek
a way to spend some time with you.
I love you to the moon and back,
with every heartbeat, it just shouts your name.
It’s all good when I am with my friends and family,
but it just hurts when I am alone in my room,
all to myself.
I just miss you with every heartbeat
and every second that passes by.
Staying up late at night,
just replaying the memories of us
when we were together, in my mind,
to the point where I can’t hold back my tears.
It just hurts when I text you,
and you ignore me,
leave me on delivered for hours,
even though you’ve seen that text
and read it from your notifications.
Your face, your voice—
I don’t think there is a day
when I didn’t miss you.
I could say I never dare
to think about you in that way,
but I would be lying.
And I pretend I’m happy for you
when you find some dude to take home,
but I won’t deny that
in the midst of the crowds,
in the shapes in the clouds,
I don’t see nobody but you.
Yeah, when I stay up all night missing you,
I just remember the day
you called me at 1 a.m.
and said you missed me.
But if you say you don’t want me in that way,
then I promise I will never ask you for that kind of love.
It’s just that it feels lonely without you.
Your love is something so true,
and no one can love me
the way you loved me
and kept me happy.
It’s true that you are someone special to me,
and there is no one
that can come close to the specialty
that you hold towards me.
So you will be in my heart forever and ever,
till the last star in the universe
burns down to oblivion.”
