In that never ending list of names
I'd spent nights searching for yours
I remember when you said that
If I keep my hand on something I'll be a topper in that
Maybe your prayers were answered
There are now a million names in that list that I hold
And all I look for is the letter '☐'
I had imagined a future
Together, for us
A future where there would never even be shadow of sadness
In this world of sad and empty hearts
All I look for is a heart like yours
I still think about where we went wrong
I still think about what I did wrong
But there is one thing I'm certain of
In the fight against society
WE lost
And in this war of love and peace
All I look for is a face resembling yours
I don't know where time would take us
Maybe we'll end up together
Maybe we'll go along our paths
Not talking ever again
And in this journey of life
All I look for is a voice as sweet as yours
I believe that the time we were together
Would be the best time of my life
And I don't know about you
But I believe that someday
I would look up that list of mine
And there would be your name
In bold and capitals
That someday I'll be walking around
And I'll lock eyes with you on the metro
And I'll not let go
That someday I'll be scrolling through social media
And I'll hear your voice for one last time
But for now, I have this archive of conversations
And all I look for
Is a name that I wish to remember forever.
