19/M/Davao City Poetry is my literature
Ahead with everyone else, you felt happy Like the final lap of the race, feeling like you’re free Then you thought to yourself Hey, I’m going to win! Expected and believed that others will be left in bin You slowed to run, thinking they couldn’t catch up Then a moment passed, someone just nabbed the title to the top It ***** but it’s your fault in the first place Thinking high on the momentary feeling of trouncing their pace Always remember that expectations give you a false perception Overwhelmed by the thought of overcoming and anticipation Thinking you’ll win, you’ve let your guard down Ignoring the fact that it’s not yet over in vying for the crown Even with hard work and being passionately determined won’t cut it If your goal is to win whatever it takes as long as you see it fit While you may scowl for second, the guy in third may even laugh At the fact that he may not be the best, but he won and that’s enough

When We Think We’ve Won, We Lost
As we stood beneath the sky fading away Billions of stars shone and led the way And Aurora Borealis graced the night as if to say Every darkness has its beauty that can’t be seen in the day   Looking high above the twinkling stars And faraway from the bustling city cars You held my hands with eyes reflecting lights Amazed by how the glints showed your world to new heights   We were left alone in a wide clearing winter Yet the bleak feeling never seemed to fester Maybe because we never thought it would be Or could it e because you’re the one beside me?   With hours that seemed  like minutes, time flew fast It never struck as we were left in awe that seemed to last Stars gently floats above with infinitesimal actions Which to me, clearly makes a better therapeutic session   As the northern lights glide through the night, You laid a kiss on my cheek that seemed to mark the side Then a meteor passed, and your smile flew high Thankfully, we stood beneath the twilight sky
