Pain of Heart

I still remember that night when I couldn't sleep

Despite knowing that I couldn't meet him, I could meet him once is what I prayed crying out my heart to myself.

I didn't want to wake up that day,

To see the sun my soul was lost from myself that day,

His in laws were dancing in front of his house that day,

I felt like the last day of my life was approaching that day,

Neither could I share this pain of my heart with anyone nor could I lessen this pain.

I had burn my feelings that I had for him with my own hands that day,

He must have also cried remembering me, I know that.

His name stayed on my lips thay day.

Thinking that he would step in a new world and forget me, I burnt myself that day.

For several days I was kept confined by myself.

I couldn't sleep but still I didn't want to wake up that day.

I would be punished so harshly for loving him so much, I didn't expect that.

My soul who lived in my body will leave me in this journey of pain, I didn't expect that.

Love became a nightmare since that day.

My smile was buried by my own hands that day.

I made a scene of myself by ruining myself that day.
