Poetic Eagle Feb 15
From learning hues that painted their joy to cradling their vulnerabilities, I hesitate to unfold my chapters to anyone new.
Nevermind knowing someone else, how do l open up to another person
To know me exactly how you did, without me sayin' a word
"Move on," they say, yet moving on means exposing the very part of me that being with you taught me l should shield from the rest of the world
So, where do I begin
I don't want another hi that will lead to a goodbye
Poetic Eagle Feb 14
So today someone made me smile, even laughed
Today l set for coffee, lunch and dinner
And never for a moment did l look for you in anyone
Today l did everything l wished to do with you, even more
And no thought of you crossed my mind
Today everything that once reminded me of you
Didn't bring any memory
Today for the first time in a long while l didn't look forward to your text
Today your absence felt normal
And it didn't make me cry
Today l don't miss you as much as l used to
So Today l realise maybe l am slowly forgetting you
It's what I wanted but why does it still make me sad
Letting go of the part that loved someone is never the easiest

Too much emotion
Too much time
For uninterested people
Too much feelings
Too much love
For an ungrateful person
The past will not come back
And you cannot force one's love
Is it about time,
To let go of the past?
How about this time,
We choose a different path?

No matter how I said to everyone that 'I'm okay' and 'I'm fine'. But everytime I'm alone in my room.
The emptiness would reflect my feelings and the darkness envelop my whole being.
The tears that I hide for a thousand smiles was shed one by one until it's countless.

I really want to share it with somebody but they don't understand.
All I could see in their eyes is sympathy which is I don't need it.
Losing someone you loved the most is something that you lose half of your life.

Indeed, I am miserable right now.
I am in between of staying or letting go the sorrow.
But despite of it, I'm still hopeful that someday the pain will gone.

Looking back on it,
I realize it was all lies.

All the "sweet" things you said,
they were just to blind me from the truth.
You never meant a single word.

So I've decided it's not worth remembering lies
and that I'm better off forgetting
you.

How is it that I mean so little to you?
When I cry my whole heart out blue
How is it fair that I'm the one crying every night?
When you're out there living your best ******* life
Do I really mean so little to you?
After all these years of us being perfectly dued
To this thing called love...
How can I mean so little to you?
You ******* *******.

I know its selfish. I know it's selfish to want you to ache for me the way I am for you.

in just 30 mins
i hear her voice
see her face
touch her hands
the heat of her embrace
yet I feel nothing
we can now properly talk like normal people
and the best part of it is
i feel relieved
because I am now sure
that the woman I'm with right now
is the one that I want to be
for the rest of my life.
3 years since I made the poetry 40 minutes. Now I am sure that I already moved on from her.

Loving you is easy
No need to learn it
I just felt and knew i love you
It didn’t took me years
It just second of a conversation
And i already new
But why is that
Unloving you is hard
I have to learn it
It took me years and i still love you
Even google have a wrong answer
Is there a way to learn to unlove you
Loving someone is easy but unloving them is hard.

All I see is fog right in front of me
I can't see anything clearly enough
to distinct one thing from another

Maybe it is suppose to be like that
We've learned from a very young age
to call things by their name

But sometimes it's something
they don't have
What are we suppose to do then?

Well...
I guess just let them be
Simple as that
