That guy & his size 34's

I met you when I was at my peak,
Back when a chapter of my life was about to end,
with my job and when my charms
were on fleek.

Though I wasn't really the kind of guy
who girls would go crazy for,
I was just a guy who used to wear jeans with a size 34.

It has been two years and more,
This is just a preview of what you have been waiting for.

Wasn't really looking for someone
and had a few failed affairs before then.
And there came you,
I started to become curious over a
buffet barbecue.

I still could not recall why I exactly got you.
You had 3 guys on line, waiting for their turn on the queue.

Back then I didn't realize if I'am the guy you might have been waiting for.
When I was just a guy who used to wear jeans with a size 34.

You gave me possibly the worst
movie experience ever.
With them boys waiting outside,
wooing you to be their forever.

But then you stuck with me,
You came back.
Was it just pity? Or did you really care for me?

What we are is not the most perfect combination
despite what people see.

Behind those flawless photos and instagram posts
are deeper dreams and ambitions on what we want to be.

I must admit that I failed to see
that we can't live forever
and just stay young like this together.

I guess I did have to lose it all for me to see the reality.

I did. I fell.
You saw me on both my highest and my lowest.
But dear please trust me,
I need you to be at my strongest.

I might not look as much right now, I may have lost most,
and I know exactly how it feels to see you
with someone who is better than me.

Believe me, since the beginning I always felt
that I was a step behind, but heck,
you saw something, you still chose me.

I can't let Monday become blue again,
I can't definitely let now become then yet again.

I know you expect a lot from me,
and you won't feel mad at times if it didn't occured to you
that it could finally be "me".

I love you for your patience and I trust you with my conscience.
Though we don't really finish each other's sentences,
my life has a better purpose with your existence.

I was just a guy who wore jeans sized 34,
I can't lose you, not until we are aged 94.

Have a little faith in me.
It all starts with me and it all ends with you.

This time there are no reset buttons or start overs,
This time, it has to be you.
