Today,
I'm all alone
wrapped in the freezing cold December wind
standing next to my old high school gates
I don't even know why it somehow brings
a beaming memory
whom whispers a secret
between an affectionate boy and a mindless girl
June 29, 2010,
I still remember your voice inside my head, sucker
'Can I talk to you for a while?'
'No,' I answered, shortly
I laughed inside my head and smiled
cause I thought I had killed
your feelings toward me
December 14, 2011,
You haven't given up on me
Not yet, I guess
'Stop acting like a butterfly,' you sweared while smirking
at me, of course
'I'm not,' I denied him, as usual
'well, look at you now.
Trying to get away from me every single time I try to catch you,'
I didn't know if it was because of your smile
or your dazzling eyes
all I ever knew was
my heart just skipped one of its beats
June 29, 2012,
I'm sorry I couldn't escape the walls I've built
neither could I find my dead soul
I was trapped in my self-centered mind and
love
for the first time ever was not the key
You were wrong about catching butterflies
because you see, I didn't fly away
instead I was waiting
to be free
like a bird in a golden cage
you should've won me
Today,
It's December 14, 2013
this is why
everything drives me back
to that day
when my heart unbelievably skipped a beat
I know the affectionate boy is still there
trying to find something that fits
the keyhole of my self-centered mind

I know this poem is not poetic at all and neither am I.
I just wanted to write it for the mysterious boy who accidentally gave a twist on my boring love story. Thank you for showing up.
