Will you forget me?

Will you move on in two days?

Will you bore of me?

I couldn’t stand to lose you.

Please don’t abandon me now.


Darling, I love you.

There will never be a time,

That will change. I’m scared,

Even after all this time,

I somehow failed to show you.


(Sorry yall save the streak I was busy pretty much all day today…)
