In this garden of rose,
I am a mere petal.
As each one nears the ground,
Your lessons grasp us,
Embracing our importance.

Your words gracefully flutter out,
Captivating valuable lessons to heart
How precious one is,
To be capable of gathering such knowledge.

Akin to archangels,
Who reach to our hearts
Diaphanous in tongue
Yet more than words could ever pierce

Drops like the rain
Abundant unto the tender grass
Prime a seedling
With manna-like expertise

Let us sit by the water’s edge
Give heed to the music of the waves
Noticing every creature in it
Understanding the importance of each one

He who created you
Had a reason to
Memorable moments to cherish
For time could fly and perish

Only a few moments of connection
Misty, undefined, and perhaps even doubtful
But you, my eyes, search beyond what is seen
You, who my soul resonates with

Lead my steps, I know you will
And pray I'll never deviate
For a few moments, your love so strong
Encases me in my resolutions

Why do we love?
Why do we get hurt?
Why do emotions exist?
Why do we have feelings?

Why is relationship a need?
Why cannot we be all alone?
Why do we long for someone?
Why do we ask this kind of questions?

I promised you we'd be together.
I promised you I'll love you forever.
So, why?
Oh, why am I lying in the clouds all alone?
All alone without you forever.

The happiest and saddest memories.
Remember them all for centuries.
For those moments,
Are life’s components.

Without these memories or those moments,
then, “Who are we?”
“Who are you?”
And “Who am I?”

“Past, present, and future.
Everyday we enter an uncertain future.
Anything can happen, nothing is sure.
But the past is key to making a better future.”

Let us not forget our History.
For our stories then,
Helps us create tomorrow’s story.
In every decision, let us be wise men.

“Past, present, and future.
Everyday we are in a twilight.
Where it’s neither past nor future.
So, every second is like a unique starlight.”

Treasure every moment.
Remember all memories.
For time runs fast, and life is short.
So let us not take time for granted.

I know dreams fleet.
And I know they won't repeat.
But how are you there?
In every dream that I bear.

I'm in my dark place.
With my catastrophic pace.
Yet you did not get dismayed.
And you still stayed.

My erronous ideas in the dark.
You made it spark.
For the first time, I felt jubilant.
Where no one just can't.

You did not renounce on me,
You chose to stay with me.
Even though  I'm cranky at times.
You still gave your time.

But all this is just a project of my brain.
I'm now back with consternation and pain.
This was my shred of hope in my dreams.
I finally woke up after a decade of dreams.
My Old Project

Today may be very painful.
Tomorrow will still be painful.
Next month will still hurt.
And the future may hurt you again.

Some may think it's impossible.
Others may think it's simple.
We may think it's too hard.
You may question is it possible?

For those who are moving on,
Hear me out.
Letting time pass isn't moving on.
Nor forgetting isn't moving on.

Time won't heal you.
And you will not forget it either.
Being numb won't be better.
Nor sometimes getting back for the better.

You must accept.
You must forgive.
You must learn.
You must improve.

For not all relationships last forever.
For goodbyes are for the better.
For you and I are not meant together.
For this is the reality of Moving On, miss or mister.

I met you with lonely eyes.
And looked through and found lies.
Lies that darkened your blue skies.
And at night, your heart cries.

Day by day we got closer.
And closer… and closer.
My heart starts to wonder deeper.
But I know nothing lasts forever.

I told you one worst day would come.
And it will be very bitter like r-u-m.
This made us so worrisome.
And I’m sorry, but I know this day will come.

One evening,
The moon and stars wasn’t shining.
Because that evening…
You told me you were leaving.

I already knew, but still felt pain.
I already knew, but still in vain.
I already knew, but still it rained.
And with that, it made me insane.

I regretted things.
I lost my feelings.
I felt my heart breaking.
I hear my mind screaming.

And there I was, at the edge I stood.
Watching the sun as it slowly sets.
Wishing that we never had met.
Because you are too hard to forget.
"My thoughts and feelings tonight."
