Two you, whom I...

The night was young as I grew old,

Without sobriety, I wrote those letters.

Retreated to the room of dark and cold,

I cried on my bed out of exhaustion,

Realising I cannot go down without a fight.

I have known of your name back in those days,

But I had never really seen you around before.

It was probably because we have our own groups,

Usually because of the different schools we go to,

Or that I never stayed long enough to find you.

On one of my days of birth did we meet,

That we were put in a group, all wearing glasses.

Through sharing an interesting fact did we find,

A commonality that saw you in a little shock.

There we started little talks here and there.

Ah, I didn't realize you were the one keeping beat.

Without your seeing aids, it's somewhat different,

On Christmas, you came and discussed with me,

While I almost forgot your name then,

Your eye smile has kept me alive still.

We both fell ill, one after the other,

And I only knew because I was trying to find you.

To gift you, for your day, the interest we shared,

I had to wait for my time to get better,

While I am grateful for you to be so caring.

That time, sitting next to you, you shivered,

Told me of your stage fright that I'd hope to calm.

Your group keeps asking me to take your photos,

But it was my job, even though we were a team;

Atleast we had plenty of our laughs together.

Many times you have asked me of favors,

Yes, there was a fun shuttlecock session,

But after guessing that it was you he missed,

And after hearing his blues from the past,

Could I withhold what he deserved at last?

When did you come into my world,

That someone from the group brought you in?

Even though I never felt like I belonged,

Seeing you so simply fitting in with the others,

Just made me want to watch you from afar.

It was because of a strange heartbreak,

A friend was there to talk deep with me,

With meaning did he mention you,

Telling me of your sweet soul and heart,

Making me see hope out of my bitter sorrows.

I know of your voice that sings,

But our sounds and genres don't really collide.

While I can see you definitely as shy,

Your social life is much better than mine,

Wishing I was there with you every single time.

Sure, we do share our months together,

And I do enjoy the little games you play,

Making fun and annoy me every chance you can.

Maybe you do the same with others,

Though I'd still see you as someone special.

That time, we essentially had the same jacket.

Being faced to break up with you in acting,

I ran away and joined the acapella squad.

The story changed and you were to accept him;

I regretted my choice, but pretended not to care.

Honestly, I'd do anything for you,

And like I said that day, I'd treat you to anything.

You did agree, but I wonder if it will happen,

When I know your type of guy you'd like,

Or could it be someone just right before my eyes?

A day and two passes me by,

Still the rain around me does not cease.

It fills my heart and washes it clean,

Making me wallow in the depths of thought,

"Perhaps, we were just never meant to be".
