Maybe I just miss the memories, but not the person,

Maybe I just miss the gullible butterflies in my stomach

but not the one causing it,

Maybe I just miss the idea of having one

but not his presence anymore,

Maybe, just maybe,

Ours was just a winter air

that didn't last until summer,

Everytime you make an effort for her,

I wish those were intended for me

Everytime I read romantic novels,

what's in my mind was you as the main character.

Everytime I hear love songs,

I remember our broken melodies.

But maybe, just maybe,

my season will soon begin.
