Each day, I’d wait
To savour your voice
Speaking of little things
That hardly mattered…
When you spoke of
Your undying love
For another,
My heart shattered.
Still I listened
Because,
Even then,
Only you mattered.

Lost Chances
For an eternity
I swam alone
In shallow waters…
In wilderness,
Making splashes
As I went…
Or rode the winds,
Touched the clouds,
Raced the Sun…
Now I walk the streets
For the rest of forever.
Now I wonder…
If I should’ve
Done it together
With you
When I still had a chance…

Because Everyone has a Story

The Star
Under the stars,
You sit on your knees,
Hold my hand,
And beg me return,
Promising eternity again.
Other nights,
You shout profanities,
Ordering me to leave again.
Everytime
I wake up
Drenched in tears,
Wishing these nightmares away.
You still star in my dreams,
My love…

Frozen World
Frozen grass
Forever covers
The ground
I stand on.
My heart is barren
For it shed
Its shrivelled joy
In the middle of the
Never ending winter.
Cold memories
Make me sway
To the point of breaking
Every single night.
No other seasons
Visit my anymore
Ever since the Spring
you died.

I thought I didn’t love you enough
I wonder
Why I still dream of you.
I thought
I didn’t love you enough
To tie myself to you.
But I still
Can’t laugh away
The childish love
I held within me
For you.
You always surprise me with
How much I still miss you…
How much I wish you missed me too…
Holding Hands
