353 days
I looked around and stared at the clock like it was an endless loop.
I held a photo in my hand, felt a tear and wiped it with my thumb
As I looked down, I realized that as time passes by I was becoming numb
I needed to see you and I needed to know the truth.
I felt the urge to scream without knowing what it means
But as I shut my eyes and saw your face, I knew then that it was you that I need
You were walking your bike home with a somewhat dim look on your face
I held my breath and fought back a tear for I haven't seen you in 353 days
The last day that I saw you was the day I said goodbye
All I wanted was for you to live, even if it costs me my life
Tears were rolling down your face as I let the monster take me away
I ended up in a different world, a world without you and without the light of day
I called out your name but all I heard was the respond of dark silence
It was unbearably deafening and I've felt both fear and tense
It was weird enough to be in a different world, but to be living alone was terrifying
Everything was exactly the same yet everywhere I look it's like everything is dying
I found my way back and met a nice man that took me in
He gave me waffles and asked me where I have been
I told him the truth and showed him what I could do
Just like when I made your millennium falcon toy flew
He hid me from the world for he knew that I will be judged
He wouldn't let me see you, I tried to plead but he didn't budge
One day he and I had a fight, and I disobeyed every rule he gave me
I shut my eyes and used my ability to travel with my mind to see
I saw you walking your bike home with a somewhat dim look on your face
I held my breath and fought back a tear for I haven't seen you in 353 days
