All these different creaks of feet on the floor
the step of yours is what I aim for,
still waiting for your knock on the door.
I was left with the promises we swore.
I kept your scarf woven with your scent,
reminiscing the moments we spent,
wandering the strange places we went.
Dear, in my heart and mind you live free rent.
Thee left our home when it felt unknown,
I can hear the grieving wind as it blown;
"We are together but why it seems lone?"
Our sweet songs became unheard-of tone.
When our fire can't light us the same way,
you turned your body to where flame was gay.
I know I never asked you to "stay",
but that's the word that I need-not to say.
I can still see you at the stair,
wave of hand and throw of pleasing stare,
breeze of cold wind as it dances your hair,
your smell still flowing in the air.
Happiness was found when you call my name,
life is pure driven snow till you came,
with thy touch this beast can't learn how to tame.
When I was left in hell this heaven came.
But now, day and night all I ask is "why?"
Why you brought rain in the sunny sky?
Why our blooming love was left to die?
Why our lullabies playing with cry?
Dear, with my stars I'm praying for you,
may you find this home where our love grew.
I hope someday this fate will see us through,
and give us our chance to say "I do"
I will light your way back home with my love,
and be guided by the stars above.
But if the end was sent by mourning dove,
I will let happiness for us to have.
