Transitory
Love can sometimes be magic but magic is certainly an illusion! There are times when I wish I was limited to certain emotions so that I'll never have to experience pain, never feel betrayed or disappointed and never get my fragile heart broken. But the same thing means that I'll never know how it feels to love and be loved in return-- the thought of its kind scares me that I have a heart that is whole but numb or a heart that is broken but real.
It is hard to claim something that has never been yours or wait for something that is not going to happen although we ALL have the power to make things happen if we REALLY want to, but it is HARDER to stop when you know that it is everything you have needed and wanted.
Learning takes time and another stupidity might get in. Why do I get too sentimental? It is because memories are the only things that don't change. I know no other way but love.
If this is so, I wish I am suffering from amnesia.
Unrecognized
Though we reached a different kind of nirvana
a physical exorcism of what should not be
our shadows are too far
apart
to ever follow
the same path
to ever share
the same space
and to ever share
the same joys and pains
knowing this
You remain to be the reason
for my dementia
Monologue of a Poetic Misfit
You can shed tears that he is gone,
be empty and turn your back.
You can cry and close your mind,
or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.
You can remember him only that he is gone,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be full of the love you've shared.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him,
or you can open your eyes and see all he's left.
You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back,
or you can smile because he has lived.And you can do what is essential:
TRUST. BELIEVE.
