Don't                 think that promises
                          are meant to solve              problems.
                             Because they create more problems.

Trust                    is something you can't have
                            with promises. Just hate, just
                            anger, just pain.

People                promises false hope. These
                           false hopes create false dreams.

That Makes       us all a villain doesn't it?

Promises            creates empty dreams
                           false hopes,pure hate,
                           cold pain, and a broken life.
To All Reader:
I ask of you to give me you critiques on my poems. I want to become a better poet, and i need to know what i need to work on
I keep on turning
and skipping pages,
blank as they may be

Reckless enough to
lose them in the way,
still continuing

Life had given me
another book to
be written upon

And yet here I am:
starting and stopping
on a blank canvas

"Unwritten" - title of a song
( 5 - 5 - 5 )

They never know who I am
They never see us
It's not so wrong
But I just can't handle it
It is hurt to think and walk with it
I'm the person who beside you
But they never know
It is a song that they never heard
It is a taste that they never know
Why can't you hold my hand there
Why can't you beside me there
Why can't you hug me there
Why can't you look at me here
Why do we need a space?
You and me are we
It is love, but
Why can't we say that we're in Love
Why should we hide away
Why do you just stand and breathe softly like without me
Why do you just walk in front of me
Why don't you call my name
Why don't you tell them my name
Why can't you show me
When can you show them
Why do we got a love that is homeless
It might be like a secret love song
But what I feel is more than a song
You're not someone's baby
I'm not too
But why I just have to stay and watch you walk with so many heavy reasons
Tell them ene day
Unseen Yours
You have been told
that you love  too  much,
too  many  times
and it should have taught you
that the way people  receive  love
is their problem  not  yours.
It is not that you need to love in moderation.
It is that they  need to learn
how to receive  love  more  graciously.
Remember, your love is a gift and those who accept it graciously will know how to love you in return - there are people out there who appreciate your intensity. Save your passion for them.

Trust no one, not even yourself,
Trust not your deceitful heart,
Neither trust your confused mind,
Especially with others,
Do not trust your anger at all times,
For words cut deeper than wounds
Both sides might hurt and never return.
This poem is for when I feel brokenhearted and my heart bleeds blue. When cruel words hurt me and I couldn't trust myself not to hit back. When I feel angry and couldn't think straight, couldn't do things right. When truth is shielded from me, I try my hardest to seek God.
May all of you find Him when you need Him most. God bless all of you guys.
P.S. Sorry for keep on changing the words. I wasn't satisfied with it until now.
