The smooth air was blowing

I was smiling without me knowing

It was winter, and I was fascinated by the air

For it was something, no one could ever bear


I decided to wander on my own

And be one with the unknown

I traveled as far as I could

And farther than I would


I saw a tree down street

That casted me, with a fast heart beat

It was the tree I don’t want to see

But I was too far to bend a knee


The tree was a memory so beautiful it won’t fade

It was a memory where laughters were made

A memory made by me and the one I love

She was the best gift I received from above


We used to lean on the tree

We used to sail beyond the sea

She came close and held my hand

And together, we shall stand


But we were both a timid flyer

Dreaming high and higher

We share our dreams together

And I could have sworn we were built to last forever


We were running and laughing simultaneously

As we take the risk, and dream dangerously

She gazed at me in awe

Her smile was perfect, not even one flaw


I could have sworn that time

We were one like a rhyme

As we dance like there’s no tomorrow

And remove each one’s sorrow


I swear, for the first time, I became brave

That I was ready enough for a tidal wave

I was willing to fight for the one I met

The one who was as mysterious as a silhouette


She was blonde; my hair was black

Though we’re different, we didn’t look back

Because we knew each other to well

Thus, we were casted in a deep spell


October 28, 1948

A time where I was about to break the wait

I was ready to tell her how beautiful she was

As I hope to finally call ourselves an “us”


I was even ready to blush

As I feel my heart rush

She was everything to me

As my heart beat rapidly


Her eyes were electric blue

And those were the one who made me new

She was meant for me

Like a fish to a sea


I waited for a day

I didn’t let my eyes go astray

For I know she’ll come

In a minute or some


5 years passed and I’m still waiting

But now my heart starts hating

She left me with no goodbye

She left me crying with her lullaby


I was standing next to the tree

Until something caught my sight, something I see

A carving from the tree’s bark

Removing all the dark


The carving says, I love you

Under it were the words, and I still do

Beside it was hole with a note

Covered with dirt as its coat


The note says, I’m sorry I didn’t say goodbye

But I can’t let you watch me die

Be happy as much as you can

We’ll meet again, though I don’t know when


These words I leave to you,

I solemnly say I love you

My life might be taken away

But my love for you will only grow day by day


As I read her note

Dressed with dirt as its coat

My love for her was awaken

It was only now that I know, she was taken


And now, this I leave to you

Our love was never gone, it surpassed the blue

I may not see her blue eyes anymore

But my love for her, shall only soar

It was summer, and I was breathing heavily
I glanced to my left, and they were walking steadily
I gazed across my row, and apprise them in fear
They're getting closer, I can feel tension, they're near

I can feel the insipidness of each soldier
I can feel them getting bolder
I can feel how badly they want to win
As the smoke grows light and thin

We ran apace to the nearest tree to hide
I can feel my heart jumping , wanting to come out from my inside
Our condition was clear, we're going to die
I didn't know what to do, so I gazed to the sky

I prayed with all my heart
For my whole body was tearing apart
I breathe in and out
And then with all I am, I came out

I swiftly raced my gun to my chest
I walked forward, to pass the test
Flabbergasted, blood were flowing here and there
This is war! Our leader declared

This is the first and hopefully not my last war
I shoot constantly, to come afar
I reached a safe haven to rest awhile
As I watch some being shot even from a mile

I wondered of how I can survive
I wondered of how to keep myself alive
I wished to hide forever, but I prefer not to
For I'd rather die than to be called timid by you

I charged toward a combatant
Boom and blam, blood was flowing from me, it was patent
I was shot from behind, and i trembled in dread
I lay down to the meadows, like it was my bed

As I was about to die, I reminisced a thought
Is this war worth to be fought?
Back to my mom, she was smiling at me
She glared at me in awe, like she was glad with what she see

I was dying and smiling simultaneously
It was enough to fight, dangerously
I did enough, I guess
There's too much I did already, too much mess

I closed my eyes, and count to three
I talked to myself and me
Asking, if I did hid, would I live?
Is this war, worth my life to give?

The green grass corroborates the cold
Making the atmosphere feel cold
Waiting for the trees to be mold
Waiting for the beguiling stories to be told

All of my frivolous dreams are thrown
As I search for the stupendous unknown
They, themselves live alone
But, they bring forth chills to your bone

You'll be bedazzled as they array
As they make your feet wander astray
You'll find yourself discombobulated in the bay
As you glare at them in awe as they dance ballet

But I apprise you, keep your feet close to the ground
Keep your ears focused to the mellifluous sound
Saying, the lost are soon the found
And one day He'll be releasing all who are in bound

Watch out for the wolves hiding under the moon
Watch out! They'll be howling soon
Inveigling you with an enchanting tune
So be aware, and be immune!

One step, two steps; they're near
They're in your vicinity, waiting until it's clear
They'll be gnashing their teeth near your ear
All because you're cavalier

Fear this most, "the trumpets shall once again blow"
And the question is, do you know where you'll go?
If not, then it's time for you to know,
Heaven is real, so is hell; are you going up or maybe low?
