I don’t want my friends to think it wrongly

Because they are one of my priorities

But meetings with you cancelled are cancelled possibilities,

Which are the sources of grief and yearning impending upon me.

I don’t remember making any wish

Or desiring something for most of my birthdays.

I couldn’t think of anything to wish for anyways.

This time, I wanted to spend it with you unlike all the previous.

I will smile and want to enjoy when

My besties will celebrate this occasion

I sat and tried to enjoy from the depths of my heart

But I feel unknown sadness since you and me are physically apart.

Sometimes, it is your immaturity,

At other times, just our responsibilities,

Some days, my own fears and insecurities

Which have prevented our next meeting.
