Big Bird, a rare, fine brand
Taking off to air from land
Flapping her wings in midair
She soared, into despair.

We waited in your nest
But you vanished from the rest
Drowning hearts amid tears
Birthing panic, pain and fears.

What happened to you Big Bird?
Your voyage got so weird!
We awaited your return,
But our hopes, time has burned!

Two hundred and thirty-nine
Burning candles ceased to shine
Times like this I ask, "God WHY?"
As hearts and souls, melt and cry!*

Every poem I write is of you.

I write of your chiseled jaw and cheeks.

I write of your collarbones, from whose depth I could drink wine.

I write of the bed of stars you laid me down upon.

I write of your golden skin under the soft white sunlight.

I write of your eyes which remind me of the moon.

I write of your spine which resembles the solar system.

I write of my love and of my man, whose entire soul resembles the composition of the universe.

And I can only hope I am a galaxy within it..

In your Easter Bonnet, with all the frills upon it.

An Easter bonnet on every girls head
Pink, green, yellow and some times red...

Some had bright flowers, set on the side
Others had ribbon, wrapped around and tied...

It was a beautiful sight, those colorful hats
Setting pretty on moms, daughters, and sometimes the cat...

Every cat should have a hat...

You come and go easily
like nothing existed
such as 'you and me'.
My fragile heart
has shattered into pieces.
You left me
with such memorable kisses.
I wish your life
would be as new
as the heart **I once gave you.

Maybe it wasn't the time
that we've been together
or it wasn't the memories
that could've lasted forever.

We could've made it 'til the end
but you left me without a warning.
You are more than just a friend
that I long for every morning.

Somehow you remind me
of my past lover.
Like how he used to
play my nose with his finger.
And how he used to
pinch my skin.
When I get mad,
he starts to grin.

Some things he does,
I seem to forget.
Hurting him constantly
is one thing I regret.
How come I miss
these things I knew?
Isn't it bad?
I find him in you.

But now you left,
our tragedy has begun.
Something shattered inside me,
that I thought was long gone.
Your deep, gentle voice
resonates inside my mind.
You showed me love
but it was a dangerous kind.

Someday we might have
a new beginning.
Time can heal wounds,
but it can be deceiving.
I guess we'll want
a brand new start.
Or, forget each other
and forever be apart.

To forget you
is just another repercussion.
It may be unpleasant,
or the best decision.
This perilous love, I'll end
without even saying a goodbye.
Don't even mind it
and bother asking me "Why?"
