She's That Girl!
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
Today when i woke up, i smelled fried chicken lollipop
I stopped myself from getting up coz i was too lazy to do that.
Instead, I opened my laptop and looked at my bag unpacked
I shaked the idea of packing up, yeah right,too lazy to do that.

I looked at the screen, i saw our faces goofing
Nothing can stop me, i just stared and stared.
Someone asked me "who is that girl?"
I shrugged and said, "she is just a girl".

I was surprised by the way i answered and found myself searching
Not for the right response for the question but for the truth about how i feel
That girl isn't just a girl if she stays there on my screen
So I gave myself a minute to think for honest answers.

I kept on staring and that minute felt like hell.
Memories went on pouring like rain and filled the blanks in the air.
I faced the one who asked me, I sighed, and told her sadly,
"She's the girl i wish who was here."

I Wanna See Her Again
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
I'm writing a story of me leaving Moochy
I don't know what to say when i feel this way
So i thought i'l let the paper and pen to cast it away
Because i just can't imagine how it ends, hopefully it wont, i beg.

I sometimes wonder why on earth i made friends
With someone whom i know i will surely miss
But having a friend like her when you feel like you're getting nowhere
Is like the best option you have in order to get there.

This is the third time she made my imagination fly
How i wish i could hold her hands and wipe her tears when she cries
Hug her tight and tell her everything will be alright
Because honestly i always want to spend time with her everynight.

I once asked myself why i can't get over this
This feeling of sadness everytime i think of the moments we shared
It might be because of the place and the boredom it brings
It makes us lonely and long for the people we miss.

But i don't think it's the right answer to my question
Im pretty sure there's something more
Whatever it is i dont wanna know it
It might change something great and things might need to be mended.

I somehow feel sorry for myself sometimes
I hate it when i cant control my mind
People come and go, yeah, that's true
But some part of me just can't let go.

If there's one more thing i wish to do before i leave
It's the funny thing i and she always tease
I wanna pull her close to me and kiss her gently
That way we can taste each others lips. (hahaha!)

I wonder what to feel when im with my friends out there
I might tell them alot of stories i bring
But there would always be a part i cannot share
For it belongs to me, only to me, in my memory, and it will stay there.

A Poem For A Friend
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
I have this friend i wanna call mine
But how can i? everyone wants her, that's fine.
She's not into poetry, she believes poets and writers are buggy,
Nothing's in a hurry, words can drive her crazy.

Imagery, that's the thing i possess
Not to please this girl or make her feel obsessed.
But clarity of the words i want to express
Not in front of her, for it won't come out of my lips.

She might find this funny, this little introductory
She might even think i'm going crazy for writing her a poetry
But fools do things without knowing their next steps
All i know is i can't sleep and wanna skip my meals.

I tell you something to have a glimpse of her.
Her heart is fragile but hers can break yours i swear
Don't ever dare to start and leave this little brat off-guard
You don't want to end up crying and be the one to blame.

The way i see her when i lay my eyes on her,
She has wonders that make my heart go fonder.
How charming is her face, it can brighten up my gloomy days
Can't stop looking at her even for ages.

Her laughter and  the way she brushes her hair,
The way she screams my name and even share her dreams.
I'm caught up and can't get out of the trap
I can't help it, it feels like im drowning in her charms.

So this is the secret i have for my friend.
She should not know about this or else she'll curse me to death.
I'm just writing this to get things out of my head.
I don't care if she thinks im losing my grip.

A Dream Came True
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
Whirling of your airconditioner, breeze of the open air
The things i hear in this wee hour of the morning
I closed my eyes, tried to dream something nice
But i just cant make it, things are going crazy on my mind.

In moments like this, all i want is to vanish
Not to leave things unsaid but i just cant take it.
Days have passed, they're pretty fast
I don't know how to stop the clock.

I'm trying to make sense all the things i said
But somehow regret for being so honest
I glanced at you, asked myself some clue
Of how you found the things that we've gone through.

I can't understand why on the first place i'm lying on your side
All i know is i'm awake and wanna hug you tight
The taste of lips i savoured and felt
Though you told me i didnt know how to kiss.

You may laugh at me and forever find me funny
I think that's the image i might leave to stay
But pardon me i just wanted to let go
All the glow you gave me when i laid my eyes on you.

It's not a game that most people play
Because im not good at it and i dont mind losing anyway.
All i know is when i wrapped my arms around you
I felt some warmth that only your heart can outflow.

I thank you for all the things you've showed
They're not easy for sure, i know.
One day when you think of this day
I don't know what you would say, but for me, this is one of the sweetest things i ask when i pray.

Chasing A Dream.
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
I'm here in between of fear and despair.
Trying to look back in hope to prosper.
But things keep chasing like wind in cold air,
Baby, i don't want to be unfair.

I'm trying to go beyond what eyes cannot see,
And reaching the farthest line in my fastest way.
I'm catching my breath, i'm losing my pace.
Baby, tell me, how strong can I get?

My heart is beating, telling me to keep going.
My knees are getting frail but i won't kneel in pain.
I have to raise my head up and look at what's coming.
Baby, tell me you'll be waiting no matter how long i'll get there.

Those eyes, when you look at me,
Are the prettiest things you could ever lend me.
They pierce down my soul, touch my deepest emotion,
They just simply take my breath away.

Those lips when you speak my name,
Are the loveliest things, no one could imagine.
The way they curve, the way they move,
I just simply can't take my eyes off.

That skin that embrace your soul,
It looks fragile, it's adorable.
Oh the luminosity, it's dazzling me.
Baby, i just cannot go astray.

I want to be a painter to put these things in detail.
But i am nothing, just trying to scramble some words here.
I cannot blame you, it's just it keeps going.
So now baby, tell me, how can i stop myself from chasing that dream?

Take Me To Your Heart
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
Take me home,
Take me to the place I belong.
Until when am I going to be alone
And think of you all night long?

See me weap,
This lonesome heart that hardly breathe.
Loneliness isn't a thing to keep
But for you I'm willing to wait.

Take me home,
Take me to the place where I won't ask for more.
Until when am I going to wander
For someone who can make my heart go fonder?

Feel my lips,
They'll let you taste things only them can give.
Going insane isn't my thing
But with you I'm willing to lose my brain.

Baby, just take me home,
Take with you everything I own.
Until when I keep on asking myself
For the things only a fool can think?

Look at my eyes,
Stare at them and don't be blind.
Dreaming is my favorite thing
And it is always us I imagine.

So please, just grab my hands and take me home...
I will hold them tight and go with you to the place we belong.
I'll stop asking questions and just be sure
Because I know your heart will always be my home.

One Step At A Time
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
I was looking out the window, feeling so blue,
Imagining a picture of me and you.
I looked up the sky, it was so high,
Wishing rain would pour for me to feel fine.

I hugged myself, made a few steps,
I had to drag my feet to reach the very end.
I stared at the ceiling wishing you were here
To feel the warmth of my embrace and care.

I was wondering why people need each other.
Life would be so lonely if we're not together.
Like a solitary bird that is trapped in a cage,
And wish to find its soulmate to live with.

I wanna see you in any way,
I feel so empty and hoping for you to stay.
I know that would be so demanding of me to say,
But do you think destiny will let us be?

I have many questions on my mind,
But I'd rather keep them to make me feel alive.
Because i know no matter what we do,
They will remain unanswered and won't let us get through.

I thank you for keeping me strong,
And lifting my spirit up whenever i feel so wrong.
Day by day you are there for me,
I can't imagine my life without you near me, God, I think I'll go crazy.

You know that I love you, don't you?
And you told me you felt the same way too. :p
We both know where this love will take us, and yeah, it won't last,
But I just hope one day time will give us a chance to even hold each other's hand.

I'm holding on so can you do me a favor?
Can you be strong and live your life as if nothing goes wrong?
Because I know, one day, we can keep each other by heart,
And be those birds which finally got out of the cage, spread their wings and find each other to keep.

Confession
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
Stories were told, blank moments were filled.
Angst resolved, imaginations put to an end.
The door was closed, new things entered.
Burn the memory, ashes were taken by the wind.

People dream, roads are still there to be taken.
Regrets are felt, unwanted things happen.
Wounds will heal, time will speak for its best.
I am but a loner, having a pen and paper in my pocket.

Carry the cross, lift it up to the Healer.
Enjoy the scorching sun, dance under the rain.
Someday I know when I reach heaven,
You are there, waiting for me to sit with the Father.

I'm Sorry.
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
I couldn't be more sorry for all the things i said,
I pushed you away, made you feel that way, baby i'm scared.
I couldn't blame myself more for all the things i have done,
I left things undone, it wasn't fun, baby i should have stuck to the plan.
I couldn't be more moved by the things you are going through,
Looking at your eyes, trying to get inside your mind, baby hold my hand, let's walk side by side.
I couldn't be luckier for still having you,
Despite of all the things on your way, the people who make it not easy, baby you haven't forgotten me.
I couldn't be happier for everyday that has passed,
We fought, we made love, we cried, we laughed, baby for as long as there is you-and-me, everything will be okay.

Let's Smoke! :D
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
We spend our time, people pass us by,
Their thoughts are sly, they might wonder why.
They see white fog invades our cries,
And carries away the fear as we look each others eyes.

We breathe it in, let it run through our vein,
We savor its taste till we can't keep our pace.
We laugh our anguish and scream our heartaches,
We let things happen as they please.

Stories are said, open hearts are offered,
In this place only God has made.
Feelings are replaced, some wish they're dead,
What a boring life, nothing to achieve.

Evenings come, thoughts appear uninvited,
We share each others dreams in midnight silence.
As we lie in bed thinking of the days ahead,
Tears flow down on our faces, we can't help it.

Oh white fog in the air, wrap our miseries within,
Whatever life we left behind there, only heaven knows why we're still here.
In this world where worries are present,
It is a miracle this kind of friendship has taken place.

Heal A Soul
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
Sun, moon, and stars, sparkling light they splash.
Clouds, thunder, and lightning, i wanna bathe in the rain.
Anger, hatred, and fear, i do not know which should reign.
For smile, life, and laughter that's all we've got to gain.

Life up above the vast sky, i wonder how and why.
Things in circle, people and illusions, the gift of sadness makes us cry.
In the world of confusion where everyone has their own opinion,
We make it or break it, it doesn't matter no more.

We plea, we breathe, and we try,
We touch people's lives before they bid goodbye,
Their souls will meet ours in time,
So for now let's go on without asking why.

Hold On
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
You are the reason why i am living
Everytime it hurts i feel the pain
I may act selfish, childish, and pour all the anguish
But baby you are still the reason why i am living.

You are the reason why i am breathing
Though you take away the air that makes the room suffocating
I may shout for fear, despair, even we say you are unfair.
Baby, you are still the reason why i am breathing.

You are the reason why i am loving,
You are the reason of everything i am feeling
I don't know... but it feels real, i am just here.
So, Baby just let love make us both have each other.

Never Did I
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
Never did i expect i would love a
thing i never wanted
Amusing how things turned out, they
happened, it's unexpected
Now i'm drowning baby, i'm drowning
and i need to breathe
Give me some air, kiss me, i want to
regain my consciousness.

Never did i think someone like you
would exist
Not for the world but for someone
like me who is full of mistakes
I've been wondering why life gives
me something i don't deserve
Or maybe i do, i just don't know how
to take notice.

Never did i tell myself to love
someone as deeply as this
Love isn't my thing but now i'm
doing what it is asking
Can't make sense of everything, baby,
can you tell me what is happening?
Because all i know is i'm doing
poetry and it's something that i need to
beware.

Dying For Love
Aicon Pretal Jun 2014
This heart is pounding, too fast, can't hear a thing.
I need some ******, not to stop the pain but to be numb again.
I'm losing it baby, bring it back to me, please, i'm begging.
Now i'm out of control, that's strange, that's unfair.

I'm burnt, i'm lost, i'm ******, i'm floating in the air.
The fire, the blaze, the pleasure, i need you to lie down here.
The hunger, the pain, the thirst, things i can't bear.
Got to see a new sky, got to find, got to have a story to tell.

It's like leaping a distance, too far, can't be reached by mail.
This is crazy, this is something we have to sustain.
For you baby, i'll embrace the danger, i'll be your lover, no caution, no lane.
Let's do it together even if that means ...we will burn in hell.

— The End —
