Lingering in time lost will cease

Info

Explorations turned into explosions
Things I wanna do
Finally coming true
Yet nothing seems to do

Experiences I dreamed of
Now that I've experienced them
Time to say goodbye
Now that I've asked why

Brilliant adventures
My heart is captured
Wildest escapades
Led me to a chase

We went on treasure hunts
Led by ancient chants
Jumping from mystery to mystery
Now I walk in misery

We followed trails of stars
But now I'm tracing scars
Picking up puzzle pieces
To complete missing phrases

Listened to your stories
Watched you free from worries
Unaware I'd never hear
How it turns out for you, dear

Now that time has passed
A voice calls from the past
Memories I'll treasure,
Remember in the future

Although I might never hear from you
Among your friends, news will travel through
I can finally put these feelings to rest
Seeing you at your best

Now that I've found you in bliss
Lingering in time lost will cease
I can embrace the warmth I've missed
In the transcience of seasons, but a mist

Time lost cannot always be redeemed
Hence, at times, hope is dimmed
No wonder they call life bittersweet
Yet, we still hope to meet

A/N: I wrote this waaayy January. Got stuck in drafts. Almost turning a year, but I guess it's never too late.
