Still Waiting for You

You left—

without looking back even once,

without leaving a single word for me.

Under the weight of that silent goodbye,

my sky collapsed quietly within.

Yet I did not break completely,

because deep inside my heart

a silent flame of faith still burns—

that one day, you will return.

The path you once walked away on,

I still keep my eyes fixed there.

In the colors of dusk, in the mist of dawn,

under the tender light of the stars—

I search for the sound of your footsteps.

I imagine, one sudden day,

you will stand before me

with a handful of flowers in your hands.

Their fragrance will fill my long waiting,

and in your gentle voice you will say,

“Do not misunderstand me…”

For that single sentence,

I have stayed awake through countless nights.

I have shattered and rebuilt so many dreams

with the hope of your return.

Time has taught me how to live alone,

but it has never taught me how to forget you.

Inside my heart still glows

a small, undying light of your name.

I am still alive—

waiting for the day to receive your love,

waiting for your return,

waiting for a touch,

waiting for forgiveness.

And if you ever come back—

you will find me right where you left me,

steadfast in faith,

silent in love,

still waiting for you.
