Waiting for Tomorrow

4/24/2011 9:34pm

I wonder when these feelings started

I wonder why I even have them

This wronged heart of mine

Why did it make its way to you?

Your words strew the distance

Letting your hands slip away from mine

I never really had you

Even my dreams say so

So tonight, just tonight

Let me cry my heart out

One last time

Tonight, just tonight

Let me read your letters I up ‘til now kept

One last time

And tomorrow, I’ll be okay

You’re really just been a dream

A reverie beyond my grasp

I never really had you

Tell me this isn’t true

But still, let me seize the time at hand

Let me stay in the world of make-believe

Because I know you will be back

In time you’ll realize

So for now, just for now

Let me cry my heart out

One last time

For now, just for now

Let me read your letters I up ‘til now kept

One last time

Hoping that tomorrow... I can finally have you

Somewhere in the Middle

Can you remember?

Back then, you and I

Living worlds apart

Different history, different story

Between us

I thought there’s really not a chance

Everything was so ordinary

Not a single hint of getting very far

But gripping through the arms of fate

Look at where we’ve got

More than friends, but less than lovers

Guess we’re somewhere in the middle

It is a line between what they call happiness

And yes, stupidity

It’s been a while now

Yesterday has been all but a dream

You and I, though have different history

Now shares a wonderful story

No one can possibly understand

How things work between us

Everything’s not merely the acts of fate

It is a world of chances we together created

And so I seize unto the precious time at hand

Because I don’t know when all of these will last

More than friends, but less than lovers

Guess we’re somewhere in the middle

There’s the choice of whether to cross the line

To grab the full fruit of happiness

Or say goodbye to chance

**It was just so ironic that after I finished this poem, Shane told me to listen to this John Mayer song that goes "Friends, lovers, or nothing. There can only be one". So now I'm wondering, is there really no such thing as in-between? Being in the middle is stupid, I know. But what if somehow it gives you happiness? Where would you be?
