FRIEND II

What I've finally realized is that
It's not that you were kind to me,
It's not that you thought I was important...
The truth is, there were hard days too.
Before I was crushed by my insecurities
I sent myself an SOS.
I thought I understood you completely.
I made you wait a long time. You continued to believe in me
without even knowing when I'd return, even when morning came.
I'm sorry for not feeling your pain.
Then, even once
was anything done for you?
About that I'm endlessly regretful.
Even though I thought I understood you completely...
You've waited for me a long time. You believed in me
even though you didn't know if I'd ever return.
I'm sorry for not understanding your feelings.
The days when your happy face was smiling will surely come again.
Even though I made you wait for me a long time, if enough time has passed
I want to be in a great relationship with you, that can be broken by no one else.
I pray that we can be closer.
