<sup>I didn't know anyone wanted me before this day came.
I didn't know how to hug someone before I met you.

Look over here. Walk over to me.
Why are you going the wrong way?
Look carefully, it's not anyone else... but me.

How many times must I call out to you?
How loud does it have to be for you to hear?
I have never rested from this ever-exhausting love, so, when will you recognize me? When will you begin to love me?
If you were me, then it would be so easy.

I don't know how to stop now. There must've only been a beginning.
I don't know anything except for you, and I don't want to learn.

Your happiness with others makes me miserable.
Can it not be me? Look carefully inside of me inside of you... it's you.

Even if you put more rocks onto my heart, it can never outweigh the longing.
Until the moment my eyes become hazy, I want to watch.

Even if I wait, will you ever come? Am I not in your tomorrow either?
I can't put away my heart before you’re here, but will the day when I have to forget still come?
If I try to forget then will I really forget?
Everyday forgetting first...
It starts with the heart set on forgetting, but by forgetting myself will I forget you?

I love you.</sup>

OBS: This is NOT edited in some photo-software program. This is a pure scan of the original drawing -it's only worsened by my stupid scanner- and it’s completely touch-free. I really hate when people automatically assume I've used Photoshop (or a similar program) to edit the details and contrast of my drawings. Just a little notion before anyone asks.
