I am not your number one
And that is ok
I have accepted this
As my fate
Inescapable
You see,

I...
will never come first.

And that’s ok.

When I tell you I love you more than anything,
You will never reply the same.

And that’s ok.

I will never be your first

And that’s ok

It’s ok.
It’s ok.
It’s ok.

Her smile will forever make you day

And that’s ok
(I wouldn’t love you as much as I do if it didn’t anyway)

She is your purpose for living

And that’s ok
(I wouldn’t love you as much as I do if she wasn’t anyway)

Her laugh is your most precious thing

And that’s ok
(I wouldn’t love you as much as I do if it wasn’t anyway)

It’s ok.
It’s ok.
It’s ok.

She will always be your brightest sun

And that’s ok

She will always be the first

And that’s ok

I will never even be the fourth

And that’s ok

It’s ok.
It’s ok.
It’s ok.

It really is.
I swear to god that it’s ok
I love you all the more for it
And I wouldn’t have it any other way

But at night....

When loneliness seeps into my bones

And monsters hiss into my ears


Reminding me that I am not your first
That I... have never been anyone’s first and most important person


That I have never deserved it

And that I will never even be your fourth.

And that’s ok.

It’s ok.
It’s ok.
It’s ok.

But at night...


With loneliness bleeding through my soul.

I can’t help but wonder...

What it would be like.

To at least once


be first
To someone
To anyone

Because I have never been anybody’s number one.

Never been put first

Not even by myself.

And I never will be.



And that’s ok.


It’s ok.
It’s ok.
It’s ok.

Because when the sun is out.
I love you all the more for it
I don’t regret it.
I do not envy it.
I love you all the more for it

And it’s all truly ok.

It’s ok
It’s ok
It’s ok

But at night


With loneliness swallowing me whole

I can’t help but wonder

Why I

Will never

Be enough


To ever

Be first


Or even

Simply fourth.

Does always exist?
Or do we mean
As long as I love you?
A poem every day.
Rintato May 2019
Although a being,

But of different country.

Rifted between by language,

Yet connected through unified heart.

Sharing smiles and cries,

Fighting stress and depression.

Together we have been,

Through thick and thin.

Thank you for all the times

And accompaint you have been.

your eyes have been as blue as the ocean,
with thoughts that could break the walls down.
with your feet wandering backwards,
your hands reached the ghosts
which you got rid of once.
your tongue coldly murmured the curse
with no exceptions for those you held close.
wanting the sun and the moon to transpose
with mind wishing for creatures of doubt.
Sergio Gonzalez May 2019
Luna del cielo
Alumbra mi paz
Luna de mi corazón
Siempre serás
Porque tu luz siempre trae mi paso
Y por ti camino mis pasos

Luna de mi vida
Nunca jamás se acabará
Por mi amor a ti
eterna será
Y si las nubes te llevan
Por un tiempo
Te esperare
Porque mi luna bella
Siempre serás

Moon of the sky
Light my peace
Moon of my heart
You will always be
Because your light always brings my step
And for you I walk my steps
Moon of my life
Never again will it end
For my love to you
eternal will be
And if the clouds take you
For a while
I will wait for you
Because my beautiful moon
You will always be
Poetic T May 2019
I would be but a lone piece of wood
               floating in an ocean of loneliness.


                           Never gathering on a shore.


But static in an ocean of
                          tides carrying me nowhere.


We may float, but drown slowly in our silence.
