if only i could be that one wicked witch with vicious power to use so i could twitch the hands of time and go back to how it was when ours was just a love to hate or pass.
it wasn’t long ago that we made a pact never to say goodbye regardless of the impact of the fight, of the argument, of the disagreement so forgive me if i don’t understand why we have come to an end.
i wish i could twitch the hands of time back when i knew you were not mine and all i have was just a bunch of memories of how it used to be back in the days.
i wish i could go back in time when i have nothing but just a vague memory of you.
