Pretend Poem by John Paul Ang

Don't say goodbye,
Even before we meet.
It's ok to wait and try,
If our fate allows it.

Pretend that we know each other,
Save a space for me in your life.
It's not really much of a bother,
There is no pressure or hype.

Act like you understand me,
I promise that I'll do the same.
Assume that we are meant to be,
Let's play this overrated game.

Talk to me in your dreams,
Imagine that I'm beside you.
Though awkward it would seem,
Open your heart and be true.

Whomever you maybe,
You'll always have my heart.
I'll be there to help you see,
What love needs to impart.

Pretend that i love you,
Pretend that you love me.
The feelings that we accrue,
Will waver what we need to be.

Let's wait for our future,
Endless days of happiness.
We only have a today to endure,
Few more moments of numbness.
