When the day gets tough, I just wish that you are here by my side.
A simple message assuring me that everything will be fine,
and that will suffice greatly.
Even if the sky were to fall, I know that you are here and I will not be afraid.
I'm struggling with my heart and mind now.
Do you understand?
I'm not asking for much from you.
I can be strong, and at times I can.
I will try to manage and fight back my tears and sometimes, I can.
Seeing the things as the way they are now,
I feel that we are like total strangers.
It hurts me to see you unhappy,
but I have been uncontrollably selfish.
I know I am.
But will you ever show empathy to me?
How would you ever feel if we were to exchange our roles?
That, I am treating you the way you are treating me now.
I know, I can no longer ask for much from you.
We are no longer the same, no matter how much I prayed for each night.
I just want to say,
you will always be here- right here in my heart.
