ACHES [Wattys Winner 2015]

I have you

The rambling sounds of my breaking soul,

In a single moment, I have lost everything,

Everything, I stand for, all my work, all my passion,

And then when I turn around with tears bumping,

Making rustling move on my cheeks,

I see a thumb held up,

I see you.

You are not my saviour,

But my companion.

You are not my hope,

But the reality.

I have lost everything,

But with you,

I know,

I will find it all again.

I may be not totally mended,

Who is in this life?

But with you,

I have a chance,

To find everything,

And if not,

I have you as my soul's soul,

Stitched in those broken pieces.

You are my basic necessity to be alive,

Though I have lost everything,

But I still have you.
