When we first said hello
It was unforgettable
It was awkward
It was real and magical

I looked at you
You stared back
We moved closer
And shakily uttered the first words
The first beguiling words of our relationship
Then we walked away
I looked back and waved
You were already staring

                                                                                    When we last bid farewell
                                                                                     It was unforgettable
                                                                                     It was awkward
                                                                                     It was real and detrimental

                                                                                     I was looking for you
                                                                                     You gazed at me
                                                                                     We moved closer
                                                                                     And shakily uttered the last words
                                                                                     The last agonizing words of our relationship
                                                                                     I looked back and hoped
                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                 ...But you didn't

The perfect romance
The overwhelming trance
Is such a scary state
For it can be negate

You were my home and my fortress
You were my dragon and I was your warrior princess
You were my thief and I was your jewel
*Back then... * Everything was mutual

Until

The flames stopped glowing
The fires desist from burning
The candle ceased flickering
Our love halt from growing

You lost that look, your warm stare
I no longer felt your loving care
We've grown apart while we were together
So much for that thing called "forever"

I knew that your love was gone
I felt that I was no longer the one
I decided to ask whether our love was fading
Hoping that I was just complicating

My eyes see what is real
My soul knows what you feel
My heart pleads for it to be untrue
My ears beg to hear the words "I love you"

As my lover didn't utter a word
*It was the loudest silence I've ever heard

A perfect love would be
An estuary...

People say if its meant to be
Then it will be

People also said that there's fresh and salty
Different waters... Different flows... Different tides

I want a love like an estuary
For you and me
A place where that river can kiss the sea
It doesn't matter whether fresh or salty
Whatever race, religion or country
If its real love, then it's meant to be
Traveling far and wide
In order to unite in one tide
Yes, most definitely!
I desire a love like an estuary.

Life has many things to offer
The mistakes that make us better
The everyday that makes us wiser
The trials that prepare us for the future

The past to dwell on
The present to work on
The memories to treasure
The things that need closure

The grief that makes us stronger
The failure that makes victories sweeter
The dreams yet to come true
And the times I've had with you

The choices that made us to who we are
The reasons why we go so far
The sadness that made us hope
The joys that makes life a kaleidoscope

The joys that make the efforts worth it
The joys we can never omit
The joys that make life worth living
The joys that we dream of feeling

The joys that keep us moving
The joys that we keep on reliving
The joys I've hold on to
The joys I've shared with you

Sadly,
Life is a devious crime
Life didn't give us enough time
You were the greatest joy I ever had
You were the happiness that never was mine
Life gave us time to live under the byline
But life didn't let me call you mine
*I never even got to call you mine...

Glaring up the sky
Wondering how and why
Life just leaves things unanswered
Laughter was the only thing I uttered

Reminiscing the beginning
From something so special, now nothing
What was I doing?
What could I have been thinking?

All those precious words, now make no sense
Crying so hard, hoping my heart would be cleansed
How could I have been so dense?
My time was wasted on this "nonsense"

Now as this poem comes to an end
I learned my lesson that life sent
Move on and don't dwell in the past
And accept that my fairy tale finished at last...

A dream that existed in reality
Now lies only in my memory
A happy ending that never came
And I'm the only one to blame

Everything was perfect but in an instance
We woke up and grew distant
Everytime we meet, I receive this glare
So filled with hatred, so cold and without care

My heart is crowded with regret
Because of all the things left unsaid
Seems that you've had forgotten all the memories
He previous laughter,meow giving me tears

A dream lived in reality
Started and ended with you and me
Now that our dream was left for dead
I realize now what I should've said instead

All I wish to do is apologize
And hope to vanquish the anger in your eyes
I would do anything to once again see your smile
And remind you that we were perfect even just for a little while
