I played my favorite piece once more,
Waiting for the sun to set,
As the sky turned into pinkish-orangey-purple,
Sitting on my piano chair like I didn't wished to die.

My heart's been beating,
That says I'm alive,
But—
Why can't I feel it?
It feels empty and shallow,
Is it just because I am an ill hearted person?
'cause if the answer is yes,
I'd be glad,
But then if no,
So why is it?
Did I become numb?
It seemed to slap me hard that I can't even feel my heart.

Apparently, there was this one mesmerizing sunset,
I watched it with someone I couldn't fathom to be out of my life,
It was quite a moment,
None of us talked nor made any noise,
But when he aimed for an embrace,
and held me like a precious porcelain,
I felt it.
He made my heart beat.
