Left With No Return
I ask you a question but I get no response back,
I always hug you but you don't hug back,
I told you I love you even though you won't say it back,
So I wait like Hachikō, hoping you will come back. Day after day, I return to you but you never return to me.
That day you left and told me you would be back soon,
I've been waiting and I still believe.
You may have left with no return exactly that day,
but I'm hoping that, like a rabbit, you will come back out of your hole anyway.
They told me to leave you for a while and think of other things,
but here I am visiting again as if I don't have better to do like a bird that has lost its wings.
