Don't forget...

When nostalgia drowns you,
Remember to read old emails
So that you are brought back 
To the reality you live.

When nostalgia rains on you,
Remember the disparities
So that you reconsider 
The longing to reconstruct the past.

When nostalgia fills your heart, remember, 
Like the song from the singer's vault said,
That no confessions of anything 
Is going to come your way.

When the present makes you wish,
Remember that he scarred you
And left you alone a decade ago
'Cause you weren't "beautiful enough".

When your heart still beats for him,
Remember how he has kept you blocked
All these years, as if you are impure
And would contaminate his pristine life.

When you start falling for him blindly,
Remember, that he left you for another
Got himself rejected only to find
Someone else who resembles you.

When you crave his friendship,
Don't forget the decade he was absent
Even when you could've 
Done with a friend's love.

So tell me heart, are you still waiting
For him to reappear and pretend,
That everything was fine and,
The past ten years didn't happen in your life?
