Awaking from this dream
I find myself
Quite lost in who I am
And everything that I’d thought I needed and wanted to cherish
Is no longer with me
Nor is it a part of me anymore
Can you hear me?
Can you listen to what I have left to say?
Clearly, the ciphers that you have missed
I put them all as a visual, right in front of you
Hoping for that chance
You’d realized this by now
That I want to be your friend
You knew I was really introverted around you
So, why didn’t you try to interact with me?
You knew I was scared of things
That it takes me time to adjust
So, when the time is right
Will you be my friend?
Or will you purely walk away from the friendship I’ve tried to offer to you?
My heart is pure and true to itself
It knows that I was wrong
Knowing you all these years
But never taking the time to notice the alliance you’ve offered to me
Is what I’ve realized now?
It’s what I want, but I’m not sure if it’s what you want of me
With the intention of, we’d both have our companionship to present to each other
Before your very eyes
I’d considered you’d understand by now…
As I’m in need of your presence
For that, I need you to be by my side
As I’m trying to reach out to you
Every little step that I take
Is one more achievement upon building our acquaintance together?
And every move that I make
Is all due to the cause of you?
For that, I have realized
One too many times
The friendship you’ve tried to offer to me
With the effort of your friends
They tried to bring me closer to you
Heck, my friends are trying to get me to chat with you
This just goes to shows what friends are for
Our friends know about…
Basically my situation with you
So, they go and try to get us together
To take the time for both of us
To build upon a start on our familiarity together
Show me the happiness around me
I know you’re trying to get to know me better
That makes me blissful knowing that
A small simple “hello” and “goodbye” just brightens up my day even more
Slowly and surely, there must be a reason
For all that has happened to us
Help me find the contentment I need in my life
Locate the road to my misery
If I can’t find joy around me
Then how can I find cheerfulness in myself?
If not, contentment?
Then what is it I’m trying to prove to myself?
What is this feeling I want to find in myself?
The only thing that I’m ever sure of now is…
The bond between us
A new start on our amity, collectively
I realized my stupidity and mistakes now
Back then, I didn’t know what I what of a friend
From all those painful experiences
Those heartfelt sorrows
I’ve been through
After you were gone
It made me sense
I wasn’t a true friend to you
I was scared of you
I admit that
I didn’t know why, but I just was
It made me realize something...
What I want is to build a friendship with you
I’ve learned from those heartfelt sorrows
That it’s not too delayed
To have a beginning of our camaraderie, as one
Long ago, we felt so distant
Now, just look at us
Inch by inch and bit by bit
We’re beginning a companionship, jointly
Together as one
Is what I want…?
For now, we’ll take it nice and slow
When the time is right
Soon, we’ll be chatting with each other
Instead of saying a simple “hello” and “goodbye” to each other
It’s a great start to inform each other on the friendship
For now, we’ll stick to efforts: Soon enough, we’ll be really great friends
A new commencement
A second chance on our friendship, together
For the first time ‘til the last time
I hope we can be friends ‘til the end of time
