You lied. You said you'd be leaving the country, But you lied. I still find pieces of you everywhere I go. You're the song that comes on the radio in taxis, begging to be missed. I know it's you when my hands start itching to grab my phone to see if you messaged me. Everytime I hear my phone ring, For a moment I swear it was your name that flashed on the screen. You lied. You said you left the country, But why is it that everytime I look for you, I always find you in my heart?

Liar
His lips are clean Of coffee breath And cigarettes His hands are clean From holding hands And one night stands. His shoes are clean Of ***** stains From liquor chains. Yet his tongue, Indulged in lies Promises turned into goodbyes. His mind is a clutter His lips have uttered Names of girls who do not matter.

I miss your face Don't get me started about your smile. I miss your hands I haven't held them in a while. I miss your lips I'm not going to lie. I miss your voice Even if you'll call to say 'Hi'. I miss your arms And how you'd wrap them around me. I miss your scent It's synonymous to home and safety. I miss your warmth, most of all, most of all. And I'd still miss you Even if you'll call. I know it's idiotic for me to miss your existence When you call me with consistence, But baby, it's not the time; It's the distance.

Not The Time
I loved a man with all my heart and he said he loved me back. But months later he went with her so now my heart has a crack. A crack so wide, it could swallow you whole, like all I ever wanted to be. Now everyday, I suffer the truth That who he wants Has never been me.

The way you stare as if the galaxies are right in front of you. The way you smile, like you've discovered a new type of hue. Too bad you're looking at her, and not me.

short & sad #2.
I long to memorize every thing you tell me. Every word you say late at night when your brain turns drunk even if you're sober. I want to inject your words into my veins so the moment you walk out of my life, I could cut my skin open and bleed your words out. Just like that. I want to kiss you in the middle of your sentences that I can taste your words and transfer them into my system. So the moment you regret ever saying them, I could shove a finger down my throat and force them out just like that. These are things I'm willing to do, To let you know That with every word that comes out of your mouth, Bitter or sweet, Is a stab in my gut. Not at the moment, but once you leave.

Every Word
Things are different with you; Loving you is like writing again After a long time of being idle. I've written on so many pages before, And wrote a lot of poetry. But my hands can't seem to Stop trembling as I write on these pages once again. It's not because I'm terrified this poetry might turn out badly, (Although the possibility's alarmingly huge) But because it's been a while since I've written again, And I'm unsure if I can create a masterpiece, Because I want to. But my hands won't stop shaking.

Writing Again
Loving you is hard to regret; How can I regret when loving you made me a better person? When it felt so good to lie beside you, spreading our warmth onto the cold wet grass? When it's all that I've ever done right in years of being wrong? When you made me write beautiful poetry? How can I regret when writing you letters every night, calmed the storm in my eyes? And even if you've shut me out of your life, as you've identified my name synonymous to "regret", I'll never regret loving you, because I still do-- 3 years later.

I should like to be your sunshine. Let me radiate love around your atmosphere. Let my rays dissect your innards, And fill your body with warmth. I should like to be your sunshine. For without me, Your day would be empty, For without me, The rainbows from your heart won't reflect; The flowers in your mouth won't bloom; The storm in your eyes won't cease. I should like to be your sunshine. Beautiful in your eyes, Illuminating your day with hues. But the sun may set, And the moon shall rise, And I may no longer be within your reach, or I may have seemingly disappeared. But love, be reminded That as you gaze upon the night sky, My love for you will shine still, And the moon shall echo the love of Your dear sunshine.
