I Love You

I slapped him across the face
He stayed, he just faced
I accused him for what he hadn't done
I thought he'd abuse me but he took that as fun..

Shame was painted on his face
Not that he was wrong
He was just a bit too much aware
It was his fault I was no more strong..

His betrayal got me blind
His smile was still enshrined
I always thought of him to be mine
I missed the times when I was first in line!

If I walk down the memory lane
I'll laugh crazy, forget all my pain!
He was the beginning, the end
He was all from a soul mate to a best friend

I put my soul trust into him
I let my problems rest into him
Back then, we were just 'us'
Now, Veronica and Jake, what a fuss!

I still remember the tree
It has the hearts we craved
And the little flower lily
It still has so much love on it we engraved!

I dreamt about the promise we made
Long ago when we were 'us'
No secrets, no grades
Only the two of us...

I feel the difference from then and now
It comes crashing like an arrow
I don't want blood, no bone marrow
I want him back, I don't know how!

He gave me lessons
We trained together
We were the sour lemons
But changed our taste with the weather...

We danced in the middle of the road
Caused a scene on ship's board
We stuck gums on chairs
We messed up everywhere!

Boy! I miss his smile
It made my day worth a while
I miss the last goodbye
I miss my last cry....

I want his warmth so bad!
I wish he loves me back
Wait...Does he even think about me?

Being so unsure about him hurts
Every poke now blurts....
It was my mistake I let him go
Who am I kidding? I gave it the flow!

I am woken up from my messy dream
Of my longing to see him once again
My mess-of-best friends scream outside
As if they have to board a train?

The girls nudged me in
And I can feel the boys grin
"Are you hiding something?" I snapped
"If you want that face of yours, let me know asap!"

They made way for someone
I could do nothing but pout
I rested my head by the door
Just as an attempt to find out...

"Who's there?" I yelled
A man jumped in
Great abs, good height!
The same blue eyes? The same grin?

Pinch me! That was Jake
I saw him after years!
I pounced on him with all my might
So he wont disappear or get out of my sight...

"I have missed you! I am sorry.." I cried
I heard it when he heavy-sighed
"Say something!" I addressed
"I love you!" He silently confessed...
