Five Years

People in relationships can be very cruel
leaving for a far away place
but never really breaking up
still with the hope of being together.

One year passed,
and I still remember your eyes
that never seemed to tell
what was on your mind.

Two years have passed,
and I think of your soft lips,
whispering in my ear words
that made me love you even more.

Three years have passed,
but I can't stop worrying
thinking I might see you one day.

Four years passed,
and I've taken some serious steps in building my future
but even though we are not together,
you're still in it.

Five years have passed,
and we are in the same city
but haven't seen each other
face to face, eye to eye.

I remember all our times together,
filled with sadness and happiness,
and I can't move on from you.

We never broke up,
but when the train you were riding left,
I never heard from you.

And again, I think of your smile
that made me feel so warm inside,
and I keep waiting for you,
though five years have passed.

You never made it clear that we're over,
that's why I can't let go of you,
and that's the worst you could have done,
but I'm still hoping, still waiting,
but it will never be enough.

Five years have already passed.
Still, my heart beats only for you,
makes me wonder how many years will pass from now on,
with me feeling the same.
