I didn't think he'd come back
The day he left, he left me with uncertainties
I'd love to say I begged, but silence was the only deafening thing between us
I didn't know if I should go after him or remain glued in my state
say something or remain quiet
cry or laugh
show interest or numbness
So much uncertainties
I could swear I was such a confident person before
I believed so much in hope
Uncertainty cleared it like they were pest
Everything became so alien to me
Almost two years of no communication
I got a text
I didn't think he still had my number because his, was long lost
I even knew it by heart but how I forgot it still baffles me
It was like the past years didn't exist
Like my subconscious erased the memories of him
Until that very day and there he was
I didn't think he'd come back
But there he was, in my presence
talking about us and things that had long ceased to exist
talking about getting back
I swear it took me time before I understood the word
I looked, I laughed, I cried
Uncertainties were gone
I knew what I wanted
Freedom, independence and a life
He overshadowed me before, that I morphed into the background
doing nothing but relying on him
Uncertainties swallowed me
I didn't think he'd come
but I'm glad he did
because he took this uncertainties away just like how he brought them.
I left, leaving my uncertainties
