With a fading smile, he asked her,
Could you please hug me once again?
One last time?
It's ok if it's a fake one, it's ok if it's
devoid of all the care you promised.
I just want to feel the warmth again.
So that when the winter comes
I won't be lonely, and on the days
when it's too heavy, I can still smile.
It doesn't have to carry any meaning,
It doesn't have to be true.
Could you please hug me once again? ,
So that I can remember
when we cross our paths again
That's it's you who left
when there was still hope.
