Ruby - Astari Boedikoentjara
I miss talking to you
It’s plain simple and true
I understand, we’re both busy
Perhaps this is not the time, I see
No, I’m not going to fret
Call me by my name
Know who I am
It’s my identity
if you wish to speak to me
It’s a simple request
Half the sound is faintly barricaded
as I turn to the left
The other half is still safe
as I turn to the right
I fear of slowly losing the ability
I had the strangest, most vivid dream.
I heard your voice, faintly somewhere in the distance,
yet my phone was still off and charging.
Was it my imagination?
Was my mind playing tricks on me again?
You said
all the things
you thought you’d meant
Perhaps there’s a guidebook
on how to woo
like a werewolf calling out to the full moon
Run, run away
You, with no shame
Never return, not a day
I’ll remember your name
with sickness in me
Enjoy these moments
of zero torments
no demands
except work to be done
Pseudo-romance
Oh, you're so dying to be right
assuming us in complete denial
clearly begging for that spotlight
Your accusations are beyond wild
way out of line
Once in a while,
It’s only a few steps away
just to get to you
yet it also feels like miles
perhaps even days
that I have to go through
All hopes are lost
The last bit of oxygen’s out
They say you’ll never return
This is officially your final mission
So, the vast ocean has claimed you
Break his spells
You might as well
Never say his name
End his game
We know what he is
I found your old letter
while removing some clutters
I read it again
and felt a slight jab of pain
You said you were sorry
