you will somehow reach a certain point where you understand certain things.

and after that, you'll realize how low and stupid you have been.

but if you focus on how stupid you were before, will it make any difference?

if you stay and continue to mourn for his death, will he resurrect from your tears?

if you dwell and drown in your sea of emotions, will anything change?

please don't use a tragedy to make yourself feel sad.

please stop this madness, this escape route you've been using just because you're uncertain of what you should feel.

just because you don't feel anything and you want to feel something makes you use tragedies and accidents to feel sad.

that's pathetic.

"Who are you to talk about love?"

Yeah, you may be right.
I'm 17
I don't know anything about love.

I'm just a kid
All I have to do now is study
Study, study, study and study.
I shouldn't let
Anyone hurt me
Like she did.

But yeah
Love taught this kid
That loyalty
Trust
And jealousy
Are all beautiful
In the way they are.

To be hurt by love
Means to not hurt anyone else
Using love.

So yeah
Who am I to talk about love anyway?

why do i feel heavy everytime i write?
is it such a burden to my soul to express myself?

it's like stuck between the skies and the earth
no ground to step on
and no hope to believe in.

i fear falling
crashing to the earth
meeting my end of life
i was never afraid to die
i guess maybe most of us
are just scared of how we die.

i cannot speak the right words
to express, to impress anymore
i cannot write a good poem

it's like my mouth is closed shut

i wonder why people are
so in love with the moon
when it actually just reflected
the lights of the sun?

the moon decides the tides of the ocean
but still, why are we worshipping
the reflector?

yeah, maybe you can love the stars
because they shine a little bit
and, and maybe you can love the moon
because it was there during the lonely nights

but what about the sun?
maybe we are too into something else
to realize the ones that has burned for us.
the sun needs love too, maybe?

whenever some of you
feel sad over someone
you might imagine it as
the ones you love
stabbing you in the back
and they expect you to apologize.

well, being someone with
a complicated mind
my anology is different.

you left me in the open sea
because you know
i'll be coming for you.

you know i always will.

the open seas was calm
but after that you summoned
the waves and hurricanes
with the order to **** me.

you know i'd survive
and you know
i would search for you
so you think you could throw
everything at me like that.

and after a while im thinking
maybe i'm overthinking us
and maybe you don't want me
so that's why you would do
such things to me

but still whenever i reached you
we would kiss like
we never did kiss before
but then you would repeat
the same cycle again.

and i would still come back to you.
Been thinking about this for a long time.

I left.
I saw you there and I left.
I left for me.
For us.

At a moment of realization
And clarity
I saw your figure
Standing under the pouring rain
Holding your umbrella

I saw your hair, your lips.
I saw us, laying under the big oak tree
With some touch of golden hues
I saw your smile, and your tears.

And I also saw his lips touch yours.
I laughed a bit there.
As I kicked some pebbles
Along my wander
I heard your whispers
Your laugh.

I know we never told each other
That we both feel what I feel.

I know we never kiss each other
The way he kissed you.

I saw everything
About us
In this place.

Cheers to us
To you and to him
To our memories, too.
And to me, I guess.

I'll be better off anywhere else
Than to be here.
But still, wherever I go, I'd still hear and see you.

Empty he felt
Deep down his heart
He tried to fill it
But he always
Failed miserably.

And then came this girl
Or more accurately
A goddess
She came and smiled
And the boy's heart was
Very full and whole.

He was very happy
And oh yes
The word 'was'
Is actually true
He was happy.

As everyone expected
The girl left him
And he stood there
Wondering in his own
Continuous nightmares
Asking why
And how
Everything was wrong again?
This poem is the first that I tagged #recalled as I found my old poem book that I lost before.

And the girl's name was really a goddess'.
Her name is Athena.

He asked for nothing in return
But he hoped
That she'd turn
And again let their fire burn.

He asked for nothing in return
But he smiled
Hoping she'd notice
And maybe give him a kiss.

He asked for nothing in return
Except for her laugh
Her kiss
Her touch and her lips.

He wanted her badly
His soul suffered painfully.

He wanted her everything
For her, he let his heart burn
But his love's something
He asked for nothing in return.

Anything vividly anymore.

I've lost my past
And sooner or later
I'd lose my future.

I don't have much time left
My energy is draining
I can feel my soul withering
Away from my body

Is there a cure
For loss of memories
A way to maybe pick the shards up
And glue them together
To make me okay again?
It scares me to not being able to remember thing clearly these days. :(

How To Let Go
complexify May 2016
This one
Happened not long ago
To a boy who had lost too much.

One day
He was wandering
Inside his house
Empty, no one was home
Except for himself.

He kept thinking
About how
To let go of someone.

He tried
Killing her in memories of his
But she's still there
Haunting him.

As he wanders
He felt like his eyes
Are about to get teary again
For the uncountable times on that day.

Suddenly
He found a balloon
Floating around, anchored by a coin.
A purple balloon, to be exact.
Her favorite color, he thought.
And the best idea of the century came to his mind.

He wrote a note
A farewell note
To the love of his heart
Who no longer loved him

And he tied it
Tightly to the balloon's thread.
He went outside joyfully
Untangled the coin that anchored the balloon to the ground
The coin that kept him from moving on
And let the balloon flew
As he sighed with relief.

He lived
The next day
And the other days
Full of happiness.

Sometimes
He would wonder
What happened to that balloon, anyway?
I literally did this thing, and it worked for me. I actually hugged the balloon myself and I just thought that no normal human being would do that so I didn't put it in this poem

My mind is currently empty but I wanna write something about you, even when right now I'm not with you. Maybe I was wrong, maybe I never really believed in God's plans before but I've decided to let you go; out of my sight and out of my mind. I've tried to make memories with you. I've always stuck with 'if it's meant to be, it will be' and also 'if you want someone, make effort' and they confuse the hell outta me. Should I proceed, or should I stay back? I've asked myself that question for so many times I got bored of myself trying to get the answer. Now, I've decided to stay back. I will continue loving you, and I will always remember you, as I can't unlove you or forget you anyway. I have decided to believe in His miracles, even though I was never a saint before or now. I hope writing this makes me calmer, and forgive myself for doing this. If He decides that we can't be together, I'll accept that reality because reality always hurts anyway. I will continue to remember that no matter how eternal my love for you, God's the only thing that can separate us.
I love you. But I love heaven more.

Perfectionist.

In front of

And paint for hours
And I would hug her from behind
And give her a kiss.

She is an artist
Painting the sky blue
Full of hues.
She would sit
In front of me
Staring into my eyes
And we'd stare into
Each other's eyes
For like what, hours?

And we would lie
Under the stars
When she would cutely gasp
Out of joy
Whenever an idea crossed
Her beautiful mind
And she would paint
The canvas
With all of her heart
Poured into it.

She is an artist
Painting my heart
With colors
I can see
Every time her sweet smile
Flashed in my eyes.

She is an artist
She once told me
About the stars
And how beautiful they are
When they collide
Well, I did ask her
'How did you know all this?'

She simply wrapped her hands around my shoulder
And replied
'I know because I'm looking at one.'

But when we start
To romanticize love
That's where the problems begin.

We'll start to suffer
Not from anyone, but ourselves.
Deep inside
We expect more, and more
From everyone else.

But I guess, not everyone expects more than they should.
Some push away the love they deserve,
Just because
They thought they don't deserve it.

And sometimes
They didn't even get the love they deserve.

we view love as hostile, and merely pain.

we confuse ourselves of love with lust, and

we confuse our humanity and our unity with racism, and hate

and we confuse love with only being in it with someone.

we never took love as a symbol of our existence, yet we still think we love dearly of anything, or anyone.

we are the society that hoped for to be loved and to love, but never to share and do it among us.
