It is five twenty three
When my world stopped.
I was walking on that corridor
While you were waiting at the corner
Your eyes fixed on something I didn't know
Yet when you hear these footsteps
You began to meet my eye
My heart was beating wildly on and on and on.
I was too terrified,
Terrified to let those gazes go
I was calm on the outside
But too weak that I might be dead in the inside
Why I was this so connected to you?
I know you
I know your name
I know where you lived
I know your favorite color
I know how those little eyes shines when you smile
But no
We haven't talked before
And we didn't do until now.

As you continue looking at my scared big eyes
I started to turn away
And regret all the stupid things I made
From the moment I sat next to you on that public vehicle
Until now that you are there,
There that I don't know where.

I regret being a stranger to you from the beginning till the end.

That's all I am to you:
A stranger you are sitting next to,
Seeing on the hallway,
Giving promoting cards to,
And an audience from the crowd.
Ming Sama // Poem No. 2
Sammie Sep 2018
Baby, tuck me into sleep
before you silently leave
For I ain't too strong
to bear that blow,

Baby, let me take a leap
before you act and try to deceive
For I ain't this headstrong
to go against your flow!!

Baby, love me back one last time
before you bid me your final adieu,
For I ain't this vivid dreamer of a heartbreak
to so easily let my heart get away from you,

Baby, come back, stay and let me make you fine
before you blindly conclude that my love isn't true
For I ain't too fond of these heart aches
to leave your side as you turn into something new!!
I love my friends
with all I have,
while I believe I still have them
and later.

I harass my friends,
they don't want me to talk to them,
I tell myself I can fix our problems.

I wait here to be there for my friends,
however they don't need me.
I need them though,
so I try to show them
how useful I can be.

I tell myself that I have friends,
they get upset when I act like I don't have many,
so I tell myself the few I have
are the best and all I need.

I'm getting bored of being lonely now,
so I try to make it better.
I go to lengths to surrender,
to get my friends to care for me.

Each day that passes,
the surer I am
that my friends don't treat me the same way.
Shall I pretend it's all an illusion,
or give up on this stupid game?

I spend my down time wallowing,
because I've run out of fuel to act happy,
the memories I have are now distant,
and I realise I can't recreate a single one:
the friends I needed for them
are all gone.
There we sit beneath the cherry blossom tree,
You were there, talking to me.
The silence, hearing the trees whispering.
We were spending all afternoon laughing.
I just wonder and I wanted to ask,
“Would I belong to you soon?”
“Would I ever have you?”
I wanted you to know and hear.
My heart brings off with no fear.
I wanted the way we used to be changed,
Not like how we are right now.
I wanted something  more if you allow.
Talk to my eyes, do you want it too?
The voices, I heard them in my head.
Talking to myself, forgetting the road ahead.
Every way I take, it leads me back to you.
Your smiles and the way you move are my sunshine.
Being with you makes me feel better than fine.
I forgot how the rain used to cover me.
I was never meant to leave you recklessly.
Until one day, I heard through the grapevines.
I was looking and hoping for a sign.
Fright drove my heartbeat swifter than the time I trusted you.
Why was I not given a cue?
Was I asleep when you told me?
Was I wishing you dreamingly?
Was I looking forward to the future
Of you caring and embracing me back?
You loved someone you believed,
You said she is undeniably stunning...
But, you did not have a chance to know her.
I had the time of loving you, it felt great.
I wondered, “Why did you refuse?”
Still, it was just right to forget right away.
Someday, the colours would slowly fade
Into a beautiful shade of gray.
The wretchedness would be an enduring mark...
To rather let the mark be the end of the world...
Or to look up to the shining sun and restart?
Someday, I would learn to love someone better.
Someday, I would be laughing at myself and say,
“What was the real reason why I loved you?”
Cause all I can think of was your foolishness.
I could have been dumb when I had you.
I used to laugh to our one-liners before.
We were just young naive kids.
(Now, I learned.....)
I was better off giggling with myself.
I was better off being with my friends.
I used to remember that tree,
It was where we used to sit.
Do you remember it too?
I know you had forgotten.
If you ever regret, do not return.
‘Cause you might be hanging your head the next time.
But you had been right, always right.
“Let go of the beautiful memory
When we used to sit beneath the cherry blossom tree.”

My heart was falling
But you were not there to catch.
For what I felt were
Heartaches instead of butterflies
Cries instead of a smile
All pain and suffering;
that is what unrequited love had.

Every fiber of cell yearned
Every nerve created sensation
Couldn't you feel the connection?

Blue is its tune
with no reciprocation.
A love so lonely
Everything so one sided
and oblivious to you.

Killed there
Invisible here
Heart beats no more
Yet still feels pain.

i wrote your name in pencil
i would erase it before you passed me by
but, watching your back distance from me,
i rewrote those letters like i
could not wear down that pencil enough

and i wrote your name in pen
that day you saw it, it was embedded in ink
no eraser could hide those feelings
but truly no pen could encompass the answer
written in your twinkling eyes

then i tried to draw your name.
but what color could possibly rival
the love your heart contains? and
how do i put on this paper what
the sound of your laugh does to me?
every time i wrote every way i love you
i just wrote your name again and again

even now
it's all i can do anymore
it's all i can do anymore

inspired in part from Ayano from the Kagerou Project,
and in part just from me.

The first day,
I met you.
My life changed.
I believed.

The second day,
You said "hi!"
Sparkling eyes
And bright smiles.

The third day,
We had lunch.
Ribs for two
And a flan.

The fourth day,
I loved you.
Did you too?
I hoped so.

The fifth day,
You said no.
You grew cold
Like ice cream.

The sixth day,
We stopped "us"
Back to nil;
Tears were shed.

The last day,
I walked past;
You just shrugged.
We're strangers.

I doubt you'll ever see this

but,
I still think of you...
I still cry over you...

and,
I'm sorry for loving you, more than just a friend.
I'm sorry for being a burden to you.
i’m sorry i don’t always think,
i’m sorry i can’t shut up,
i'm sorry that i'm negative.

I love you  T,
I will love you forever
