" l̶e̶s̶s̶ ̶ ecstasy "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
Just a sole of looking at you,
I am in ecstasy already.

But,
you are already in ecstasy.
Not for me--
but for someone else.

" stuck "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
I am stuck in life,
where I want to give up already.

so I need to broaden it;
for it to be worth it.

" beautiful heart "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
Someone just suddenly asked me,
"Define what is beautiful".
I was horrified,
yet intricated and gave it a thought.

Albeit, yes, I defined it--
but through drawing.

I drew you.
Because I believe that in my heart not in eyes--
that you have a beautiful heart
which I adored too much.

" wishing for wishes "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
wishing is just a wish,
so I am not hoping for it to be true.
though, I doubted that myself
couldn't even tolerate that wishes
ain't even going to be true.
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
Just because I loved stars too much,
I even made you my star.
You are too bright,
shining in every night.
You are kind of precious.
You're just like a piece of jewelry.
Yes, you're a beautiful one as a star.
Though you don't belong in my sky,
but someone else's sky.

" every life is special "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
Every life is special.
There's no such life that isn't special.
Pessimistically or Optimistically,
life is still a special one.
Don't blame life--it's just because of fate.
Fate may be cruel--though it's just it wants you to experience something.
Something that you didn't expect or hope for.
And speaking of special,
yes, you are special too.
Don't say that you shouldn't have lived or born in this world.
Don't say that it's your fault.
No one is at fault.
It's just a coincidence or maybe just a sign in your life.
Don't sulk over petty things.
You may have lost someone you love in your life,
you have to hoist yourself and keep moving.
Staying on the situation where you have too many problems--
is kind of absurd, man.
I am not saying this because I didn't undergo what you've been through...
But I am saying this because--
you are a special person like me that
even our Lord God still cares
even if we've sinned too much in our life.

" a mere wish "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
Sometimes in life,
I wished I could really also be
a joyful person.

But a wish is just
a mere wish,
and there's probably no possibility of it.

Because I am just like a zany clown,
hiding all its pain--through being happy but pretentiously.

" sympathetic rain "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
I was waiting
for the rain to fall.
'Coz I am tired of
being on a sunny day.
Because nothing could help
to please me and ease my pain.
But being on a rainy day
is a kind of heaven.
Because even if no one
touches your skin--
at least there's something
which could soothe and touches your bare skin.

" someone's fault "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019

" craven cavalryman "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
A cavalryman who is too afraid to protect,
cannot even unsheathe its sword,
even if it means to protect someone,
or even itself;
but he can't--
because he is a craven cavalryman.

" pointless poem(love) "
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
why?
Of all the woman in this world--
why does it have to be you?
who only chooses a good-looking one
and not someone who has dignity and ambition.

why does it have to be you?
who always left me and hurt me..
I am tired of being a toy...
I am tired of loving...
But here I am, still doing it...
I even made a poem to express my love on you;
and to show how I really love you...
But what can I do?
Even though how many poems that either I have made or going to write..
there's still no point of it--because you don't like me...
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
I dreamed too much
and
I sought too much
yet it's about love that I dreamed and sought the most.

Of all many times I did,
I still ended up
falling on my own
stupidity
and
in the
abyss.
Ryan Joseph Dec 2019
the place where I learnt to love--
is also that place where I suffered yet too much.

" habit "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
It's my habit
of falling in love,

when being
left
by someone
I love the most.

" warm heart "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
It's not good enough to wish that you
could have a charm and an attractive face.
But it's rather good enough to wish that someday
you could also have a good yet warm heart.
Nov 2019 · 373
" don't expect "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
Don't expect to be loved back.

" just like a tree "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
You're just like a tree.
You have leaves and flowers which can also be your friends.
You have roots to protect you from falling.
And also, you are pretty.

But it's kind of sad;
That when the time comes you are going to be bald,
And that when the time comes you are going to die.
You'll be nothing but an ugly one.
And people will just forget and cut you.
Nov 2019 · 308
" Slowly forgetting me "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
She looks so beautiful.
She has tantalizing eyes.
She is too awe-inspiring.
She is too brave.
And she is too cute when she smiles.

But I am a bit sad now.
That she is now with someone.
That she is now ignoring me.
And what's worst is--that she is now slowly forgetting me.

" A Coward Knight "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
A knight who is too afraid to protect,

" To live is to die "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
To live is like to die forever,
And to die is like to live forever.

So if you wanna live--
you just need to die first,
So if you wanna die--
you just need to live first.

Life is exhausting.
It's way too short yet giving you too many problems.

But unless if you wanna live,
then you should accept death first--
for you not to struggle in the end.

" memories "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
memories
are fading
slowly by slowly,
forcing ourselves
to remember something
may just exhaust
ourselves.

it could be
better
to forget
even though
it's something
important
'cause there's no
choice
of remembering
something
when they've already
forgotten
us.
memories are special,
but they are kind of useless when everything has went into astray.

" favorite smile "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
there are too many favorites that I've had,
but your smile is my number one.
there are too many smiles you may find in this world,
but in your loved ones, nothing beats their smile...

" Life is way too short "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
Someday we can't touch again those things we've touched,
Someday we may feel of regretting of all things we have done and did not,
Someday we can't show our loved ones especially when they're already gone,
And someday we can't see their smiles and hug them anymore.

There are too many tangible things in our world,
But feelings and emotions are not,
So we should do all the things that are meant to happen,
Because life is way too short.
life is way too short,
do all the things which you have wanted to happen ever since......

" without you noticing "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
You don't have to be afraid of ghosts,
spiders and such scary stuff.

don't be afraid of everything,
except for someone who might gonna leave you.

" too late "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
It's too late!
Yes, it's actually really late now!
You came when I was already in love;
in love with someone which I could never have.
I may be in love with you,
but it's too late already!
Nov 2019 · 106
" lost soul "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
I tried to look
for a lost soul of someone,
but it's probably late
because the body has been buried already
and the soul is nowhere to be found.
Nov 2019 · 172
" sympathetic "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
Sometimes I apologize to people,
not just because they might get mad.
But because they might get sad--
that their day is ruined
because of the things that shouldn't have happened.
late or not, it's better to apologize
for the relationship of yours between someone, will not be intricated.

" sense of sadness "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
behind every happiness in life,
there is also a sense of sadness.
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
People said that we cry either because we are sad or because of our negative emotions,
but I think we people cry for a different reasons,
not just because we are sad,
but it's because we are happy.
behind people's tears...

you should remember
that no matter how happy you are,
heaven and sky will still cry.
just watching a movie and these sentences suddenly popped-up in my mind.

" imagination "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
accepting each mistake
is one of the nicest things
you would ever hear in the world
and one of the wishes you've ever wished for.

but it is just a mere hallucination
that would never become real
but just an imagination.
Nov 2019 · 264
" even at your worst "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
making too much of an effort
has never been the stupidest and foolish thing to do.

it is just that
no one is willing to accept it
even at your worst.

No matter what we people do,

we are going to end up
being alone.

" As we grow older "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
As we grow older
Life becomes shorter
Shorter yet becomes harder
Shaking and trembling which is the sign of our life have become bitter.

The grave is waiting and waving,
Which is our next adventure in life is coming,
But probably it will be a lonesome day,
That no one is will be with us especially when we're gonna play.
life becomes shorter when we get old
Nov 2019 · 139
" soon "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
Soon, as I grow older
I'll still seek of your love
even though it may become weaker.
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
I am always alone.
No one wants to be my playmate.
I can't be with a friend who only uses me.
And too much hatred which surrounded me every day and every moment.

Therefore I came to think that;
I should write things which are related to literature
So I captivated and motivated myself instead.
So I created a distance and time myself to write a poem.

I wrote numerous poems on my notebooks.
Every day on school, every thought that came into my mind which is special to me-- I will write it down.
Organizing it and choosing it which is I usually do.

When I am done writing all of it,
I am gonna make a poem-- but making a poem is actually hard to me,
But there's nothing I can do,
I'll just think too much and thorough.

I had to think for a title,
After being done on a title-- of course, I am covered with sweat,
But sweat does no matter to me,
Because I have classmates who are usually going to praise me.

They may seem not to be friendly with me,
At least I could have a time to enjoy,
Laughter and smiles are in my surrounding-- when they are reading,
After reading, all is done and gonna keep it for me to go home.

Going home isn't my priority and what's on my mind every day,
But there's nothing I can do as well-- but to go home.
My poems are kind of useless when I am only making to let my classmates read it,
So I decided to go on surfing on the internet.

I have found too many websites-- but no one got my interest,
Howbeit, after how many times-- I have found this website either page,
Read too many poems which are actually nice,
And the people here are so very nice.

After I have found this page and read numerous poems and comments,
It came to my mind-- that it is time for me to post these poems,
Maybe I'll have and gonna receive some worthy praises,
And HelloPoetry, you are my beloved buddy.
this is not fake but a real one...

" Life is short "
Ryan Joseph Nov 2019
Corresponding sounds in life does not even need,
You don't have to make them alike,
You don't have to compare,
And you don't have to make it rhyme as well.

Life is way too short,
So, broaden it and take it slow.

" Unless I have you "
Ryan Joseph Oct 2019
it was so strange at first
until I have known
of these feelings of mine
which is can't be easily replaced
without you in it.

lived in a ****** world
cursing each person who makes trouble on me
but I have calmed down already
knowing that even in this ****** world
I'd be okay unless I have you.

" Reality "
Ryan Joseph Oct 2019
It's not easy to confess,

"Actual Devotion"
Ryan Joseph Oct 2019
I am always here,
and will be forever.
So don't worry if ever,
I may be not your partner,
because I am not suited;
to be with you together.
It's not that I did not love you then,
I am just not deserving to have your love.

Ryan Joseph Oct 2019
twinkle, twinkle my little star

I'll still stare and love you, my little star.

" sweet lies "
Ryan Joseph Oct 2019
it started
with a sweet lies
just to make a conversation
and just to put a smile on its face

but it ended so quick
no one knows but her that I am a freak
who would only tell such a lies
but she never knew that it was sweeter than sugar

"Iffy Feelings"
Ryan Joseph Sep 2019
Feelings are iffy
Whether if I tell her or maybe not
But I cannot help it
Even though I may end up suffering.

Playing in the game where I am only alone
There's no one I can lean with but just me alone.
I am a disgusting one yet I keep nurturing myself
And there's even no possibility that I could have her.

I can't have my turn but I won't give up so easily
Albeit I think I am almost done
With this absurdity love of my towards on her
And probably it's a paradoxical thing that I shouldn't even bother.
Sep 2019 · 168
" Unreciprocated Devotion "
Ryan Joseph Sep 2019
Had a crush on her
Was a friend of her
Her smile always made my day glitter
It even also made my heart quiver

Then happily we graduated
With her glamorous face yet unexpected
Shone in her beautiful dress
The day that took away my stress.

We both then did not saw each other
Even though in social media I could not even bother
Because I am not an ideal one for her
And because I am a mere commoner.

When we saw each other's face again, nonetheless
I just couldn't even bother less
Because I am not in a place to bother her
Especially when now she's happier.

She has changed too much
I couldn't even get a touch
And we just stare at each other but just briefly
Albeit I just can't accept the fact verily.

The fact that we're not even meant to be
But excuse me, did I even made her happy?
Or it's just that I am only trying to be pally?
Or just trying to be a one even though I loved her unrequitedly?
Kinda broke and received an unrequited love.
Ryan Joseph Sep 2019
Refrain from seeing first
And wheeze deeply
Do not descend into stupefaction
Because thee were not born to depart thy life.
Do not wish on thy demise.

" Fools "
Ryan Joseph Aug 2019
Slowly by slowly,
People get easily deceived,
Never knew that love isn't even real,
Because they will just leave you hanging.

But I am tired of consulting,
When I was just fragile one,
Who also did fall easily,
And got hurt in the end.
