I Look For You Everywhere
I know that you’re gone,
and I need to move on,
but it’s a fact that I vehemently deny.
I look for you everywhere,
but I can’t find you anywhere;
The texts I sent didn’t get any reply.
I’d search high and low,
everywhere I go,
retreading all places we’d been together;
But found no traces or clues;
Just exactly where are you?
I’m afraid I lost you forever.
I miss how you loved me,
the way things used to be,
before our life path split in two.
I long for those days again,
before the agony and pain,
that I might have inflicted on you.
Didn’t know what I had,
before I made you sad,
until you left me all alone.
Should I ever find you,
my apology is overdue,
for the mistakes I need to atone.
When I’m in a crowded place,
I’d look for a familiar face,
hoping that I’d find you there.
I wish someday I will see,
you running up to me,
as I look for you everywhere.
