wishful thinking

If I could only make the road longer when you walk me home to enjoy your presence a little more,

I would do it.


If I could only cling and hold your sleeve bravely when we're together,

I would do it.


If I could only tell you right now who you are to me exactly without being afraid of the possible consequences,

I would do it.


If I could only add days to the remaining months that I have here just to be with you more often,

I would do it.


If I could only read your mind to see if you think of me the way I think of you,

I would do it.


If I could only do these things freely without the thought of holding back,

I would gladly do it.


But I believe in the perfect timing for every little thing. So for now, I will just wait.

But if there's nothing to come, I would kindly accept it. If you're not for me, then it's fine.


At least.. I met you. Isn't it so?


If God would allow us to meet again, someday, somewhere in the future, then I'll be frank enough to tell you this:


That I, Christine, at the age of 18, fell for you but decided to hold back.
