Which One is Better? Forget? or Trying?
Which one is better?
To forget you completely, like you were never a chapter in my story, like your name was never carved in my prayers, or to keep trying even when your eyes never look my way?
Forgetting sounds peaceful. It promise a quiet night. No more waiting, no more checking if you are online, no more writing poems that will never reach you. If i forget, maybe i can breath normally again. Maybe my heart will stop hurting every time i hear your name.

But trying…Trying is painful yet beautiful. Trying means i still have a reason to wake up and hope. Trying means even after four years, my love still has a pulse. Trying means i believe that maybe one day, you will turn around, even for a second, and see that i have always been here.
They say forgetting is healing. But what if trying is the proof that i trully lived? What if forgetting makes me a stranger to my own heart?
So, which one is better? I don’t know.
Forgetting will save me, but trying will keep you alive inside me. And between being saved and being alive.
I think i still choose to try,
Even if it hurts,
Even if you never come me,
Even if waiting is all ever do.
