Kiss you once ‘cause I know you had a long night

The stars told me how you suffered in silence all alone every cold nights. They said you look burdened by the pouring midnight rain on your exhausted body. The sadness in their voice awakened a part of me who wants to hug you there and then. You may feel alone — but no one has ever been alone — the stars always accompanied their moon even in the daylight.

Kiss you twice ‘cause it’s gonna be alright

Little did you know. Without all the fights, mistakes, and hard times that we had in the past, could have been make the ‘us’ now never existed. Celebrate it all with our wins, achievements, and smile today to let our past selves know that: We make it better. It is going to be alright.

Three times ‘cause you waited your whole life

I want to spend my time in a car, singing out of our lungs through the night with you. I want your problems and all of you possibly to be mine. I want every bad days to be faced together, to make it better before becoming the yesterday that we regret. I want to marry you with a simple but meaningful paper ring that filled with our memories written on it.

The Moon to my Star, always
