Vestige of the past

I was looking through some of my old scribblings and found this. Although I don't echo the sentiments of this poem anymore, I thought it would only be fair to it if it were allowed its moment of glory in the public sphere =)

There... to be read by others besides its author for the first time.

Presenting... Untitled(Until someone suggests a better name).

You ask me not to think so much,
But sometimes all I can do is think,
In the nights I spend missing your touch,
Between us there seems to be one lost link.

I can't help but wonder if we will last,
When all around us people are splitting,
I can't help but think of days gone past,
And wonder will we have a happy ending.

Universities, tests and applications,
Seem more menacing day by day,
Building between us more complications,
Will we ever find a way?

I'm so happy each time we're reunited,
But at the same time I dread it too,
Cuz I know we'll once again be separated,
How many more times will we have to go through?

None of this is your fault I know very well,
I know this pain I'm feeling is shared by you,
But your thoughts I really wish that I could tell,
Then maybe I'd know what I'm supposed to do.

Budding dreams go fleeting by,
If I reach my hand out, will I lose yours?
Will our final word be goodbye?
Is our love destined for a different course?

I wish I could explain to you all my fears,
I don't know if you'll understand,
The dreams and fantasies, all the tears,
Forgive me, everything just seems so out of hand.

A year from now, where will you be?
Will I still belong in your heart then?
Will we be one, blissful, carefree?
Or will I have become only your friend?

I'm asking these questions not for an answer,
I just want you to know what's on my mind,
to let you know how much I want us to stay together,
To know if you care too, and think in kind.

We each have our own journey to take,
I'll pray and try to meet your pace,
We each have our decisions to make,
But just sometimes I wonder,
In your future will I have a place?

I look back, and I thank God. I still believe that everything happens for a reason, even if you'll never understand what the reason is.

Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name

Every blessing you pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be Your name.
