"Foolish Heart"

Snow came trickling in the mid-summer sky...
Time stood still, Silence is deafening
As you said the word, "Goodbye".

Just when my world, that the rainbow has clothed...
Have found its life, and put a smile to existence
You ended with the letter you wrote.

Why does it have to end, why must it start anew...
Why must there dusk, then in the morning a dawn
For me to know that it's just isn't you?

The pain that my life has endured the day that you left...
Now stand as a thorn, that grows with the vine
The vine of mem'ries that in my lonely heart crept.

Now I have nothing but pictures and love letters...
To be reminded of once you and me
For in my heart I know, LOVE is all that matters!

Or is it? Perhaps...perhaps not.

 “Love, unrequited, robs me of my rest: Love, hopeless love, my ardent soul encumbers: Love, nightmare-like, lies heavy on my chest, And weaves itself into my midnight slumbers!” — William S. Gilbert

"Can I...?"

Can I tell my heart to miss a beat

Or make my world to cease from turning...

Can I tell the heavens to vow down

Or tell the day to stop from dawning?

Can I tell FATE to speak out your name

And the wind to tell you, "I love you!"...

Can I tell your heart to beat for me

And to feel the same way that I do?

Can I tell myself to stop dreamin'

And face reality as it is...

Can I just turn my back from hoping

And put my weary heart at ease?

POEMS were weaved not from a poet's mind

Neither do SONGS from them lyricists...

It all sprung from what exist within

Such inspiration one's heart consists.

Can I really speak of what I feel

Or even explain it why I do...

'Guess I leave it all to you , my friend

'Cause I think I've fallen hard for YOU!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 "I really don't know now how to give up and say, "No, you're not meant for me"...I don't know now how to back down and accept I'm just another hopeful...I don't know now how to feel for anyone knowing that my heart is chained to but one soul but you...I don't know now how to say "I LOVE YOU" if it won't be that person who taught me the true, selfless meaning of those words ~ YOU!"  ~ @manong_meloy

 

"An Afterthought..."

You didn't invite me to be your friend but I came to be. You never meant for me to fall head-over-heels in-love with you but hell, I did. You didn't know that you are now my axis and orbit, where my world and life spins and revolves, but you don't want to believe. You've shackled my heart in yours, chained my soul and locked my mind to just a single thought that is you.

"Everytime I lay my head in my pillow every night, I can't help hearing my head shout for your name...can't help feeling my skin yearn to feel your warmth...can't help have my lips long for your kisses and my shivering body long for your embrace...and can't help my heart skip a beat for you completes it when my chest beats in tune with yours each time you're with me. For you're the one I want to go to bed with...and wake up in bed with,,,and do everything in between with..."

Now what's the point? Of running, when all roads lead me back to you...of forgetting, when all I do is remembering you by and when everything seems to remind me of you....of fighting it all when loving you is inevitable.

Now that you've known, tell me: may I be able to live, and love the same way again...if it will not be YOU?

"Flame"

He holds her as if

She was his life...

His kisses lingered

Like there's no tomorrow...

She was his candle

Her Love was his light

And so he laid his hopes

On a candle flame.

As the candle burns brightly

So does his dreams...

His faith trembles

As it dances to the wind...

Each day he holds on to the flame

Hoping...

Praying...

It would never flicker

That her love would stay aflame.
