no matter how many poems i write about a girl who loved a boy,
i always end my day, staring at the infinite skies above with the mere question: "why am i still not good enough for you?"

and then i realized,
maybe all of these poems made by my mind and hand,
were all about
me and you

although there's no exactly
me and you,
it was an endless possibilities of "what ifs" or "maybes"
and the question: "am i good enough for him?"

I yearn
To dance my fingers
On your skin again
I long
To take a sip
From your glass of passion
The memory of us
Playing the orchestra of love
Still lingering
Inside my head
The sound of you
Whispering my name
Still haunts me in my sleep
I wish
To fall in your embrace
And to taste
Your sweetest kiss again
To sit on your face
And to feel the magic
From your tongue
What a blissful torture
To be exploded
In the pool ecstasy
To hear
The exhausted voice
When we reched
To the pinnacle of intimacy
This thought
Just killing me
Knowing all I have
Just this memoir
Of a pleasurable moment
Between you and me

as i sit and wonder what could possibly be done
i arrive at a realization that my heart is that of a roaring tide
deeper than you deserve to have
but asking for nothing more than the sunshine
that rolls off in drops from your tongue

there is nothing i want more than your crystalline warmth beside me while i cry
and when i laugh i yearn for my sound to echo in the caverns of your mind
yet i can do nothing but watch you watch me
as my heart's decrepit hope
sinks further into the cavity of my chest
and i feel the resounding pain that is the absence of your love on a rainy day

the torture of her beauty can never truly leave my lips
but every one of her smiles causes me pain that you will never know
if i were to try, would it matter?
would i merely become an afterthought? a party joke?
a half-drunk pun told through champagne smiles and friendly glances
could i ever be more to you than what i am now?
a gloriously insignificant extra in your otherwise fulfilled life
so i continue to shake like the tide
without you
~i have a lot of feelings today~
Now, now
Don't let her down
She can easily subside into a frown
And get lost in the deepest corners of depression
You give me the impression
That you won't ever stall
To make her happy
And I hardly see that nowadays
So you truly have a gem in progress
Just keep it going
Because I want to see this temple be completed
The middle toe every year is supposed to grow more vibrant
Not die off
Like the rest
Even though things have you put to the test
Don't let it win
You can hold that grin
And stare life into the eyes
And shatter its lies
Trust me, you'll thank me later when you walk down that aisle
A living embodiment of the work you put in
Has made its oath to you
But that will be someday
In the future
Don't know the exact day
But it will surely come your way
You just have to make the work sparkle
It never happens overnight
But as long as your heart is right
You'll be just fine.
Flickering candle light, braving wanton winds,
adds an unexpected melancholic twist;
a losing battle against formidable odds ends.
Though meant to make us feel romantic
even at the worst imaginable end chapter of it,
a doomed love that made moon beams burn,
itself bogged in morass, caused volcanic burst
in callous minds that walk backwards in time
who did everything to stop us dead in our tracks.

I am not blind not to see the quivering,
drops of tear, in your once much adored eyes,
I won't see any more after crossing this point of no return.

Doesn't this look like the perfect **** they had,
a story, in the middle brought to a deliberate end;
we can't stop it anyway, except acting out our parts
that we didn't see us doing  til this moment.

All we could do is this, give a loving burial
to this doomed love, let romance be the theme ,
in candle light we'll quietly cremate it, may the  remains of it,
ashes wind scatter,be the salt of the earth, for ever.
