You know that I know you better than you know yourself.
All these years, you’ve received everything you ever wanted.
You used to cry for toys,
Begging endlessly for them,
And once you had them,
You forgot them within days.
But toys never had a heart.
I do-and mine knows what’s right and what’s wrong.
You once longed for me with everything you had,
And now, you don’t even think of me anymore.
Do you remember?
You used to call me a “prize,”
and you did everything you could just to win me.
And now that very prize stands before you, accusing you, my love.
My heart bears witness-ever since you won, it is you who has lost.
I accept that things change.
But who knew you would change this much, my love?
The one who once burned for me like a flame-
why doesn’t she care for me anymore?
What’s in your heart? Tell me.
What more do you want? Tell me.
What is missing here? Tell me.
You received everything you asked for-tell me.
And in return, what wrong did I commit? Tell me.
What did I even ask of you?
So little... just a little-was that too much?
Let me read the letters you once wrote.
The promises you made-don’t abandon them like this.
The ink on those promises hasn’t even dried yet.
Did you write them... or have you forgotten that too?
You say, “Wah-wah, you’ve won the prize again.”
There’s a smile on your face,
but your eyes hold no joy at all.
I once told you, “I know you better than you know yourself.”
Maybe I was wrong-but this much I now understand:
Every prize without value is the same,
like toys left in a corner, gathering dust at home.
They may distract for a moment,
but they can never truly satisfy the heart.
I used to sit at home, writing the story of my heart,
surrounded by walls, speaking only to them:
“One day, the world will be mine.”
The one who was once unknown now stands among the celebrated,
yet he is still a prisoner-confined within these same walls.
Trapped in impossible dreams,
in flights that never truly took off.
