Everyday I awake to skies of grey. 

At night I close my eyes, but I don't sleep.

I don't recall when it became this way.

But I know now that we got in too deep.

Looking back at it, I have no regrets.

It still hurts to think about letting go.

It breaks my heart to see you this upset. 

I'm hurting too, but you wouldn't know. 

Things will work out if they are meant to be. 

Although it may take a few months or years. 

For right now we'll just have to wait and see.

I still have hope for us through all these tears.

You will always have a place in my heart.

If it is our fate we won't stay apart.

I can letterly picture myself and how I feel here. Despite all the craps and the heartbreaking you've gone through, I can thoroughly understand why you still have hope. For I do as well, I just know it deep down in my heart that if destiny is planning to put us together again then we shall end up right where we belong "Together". Sometimes I feel like no one can really get why I still have faith in us and I'm still hoping for the best. I'm not waiting for them to understand, I know they can't. However, I just keep hoping that this glimmer of hope won't fade for I felt a little bit lonely in this. But now that I read your poem, it kind of gave me what I needed the most, a reason to hold on for I am surely not alone ^_^ So thank you so much for sharing this. It was really stunning, deep and mostly truthful. I thorougly get what you're feeling ;) keep it up.
