#separation poems on Hello Poetry

Kevin Castro Apr 2018

my love, life is enormous

life is a creature with eight tails and six heads
life devours suns for breakfast and eats moons for desserts

you and I are the specks it feeds upon,
and at the same time it feeds us,
so life is made of people: friends, enemies,

loved ones,

so, love, life cannot be lived without people.
life cannot be lived without living all it has to offer

because life is enormous.
it is a creature
with more hearts than tails or heads

written while crying on the phone with my significant other who, at the time, seemed just about ready to break up with me. some edits were made and feedback would be very much appreciated.

MATTER OF CHOICE

I have seen the darkness.
I have seen the light.
I have felt the calmness
And also remained uptight.
Out of all these feelings,
I have always loved delight.
✒
I have been in solitude.
I have been in crowd.
I have shown some gratitude
And for that, I have also cried out loud.
Out of all these states,
Thankfulness has always been my attitude.
✒
I have loved the summer.
I have loved the rain.
I have loved the winter
And drew smileys on window's pane.
Out of all these seasons,
Autumn is the season when
my pen does not stutter.
✒
I have sung a song.
I have remained silent.
I have understood right or wrong.
And sometimes become violent.
Out of all these emotions,
Happiness is the one where I belong.
✒
I have loved my father
I have loved my mom.
I have seen them moving farther
And heard the silences before the storm.
Out of the two...

We all make choices in our lives. Sometimes it is easy to choose but some other times you can't choose between two options when you love both the options equally..

Distant Love

As your excitement flows from your body to mine i know you’re the key to my ending entropy

All i desire is to grasp you by the arm but it’s your words i read when it’s your voice i need

Yes, i’ve heard it through the phone but it’s not the same until you call my name

A missed chance and a party to blame, i know it’s me, come and collect the guilty fee

Uncertainty grows as its arms surround me, pushing on my heaving chest pulling me from my rest

Will i one day sit beside you in a room empty but for our energy?

The Early Bird

I was always the first one;
the first one to approach,
the first one to communicate,
the first one to understand,
the first one to appreciate,
the first one to apologize,
the first one to fix things up,
the first one to listen,
the first one to open up,
the first one to do something,
the first one to consider,
the first one to worry,
the first one to surrender,
the first one to care,
the first one to forgive,
the first one to value,
the first one to believe,
the first one to fight,
the first one to trust,
the first one to hold on,
the first one to fall in love,
and you were the first one who gave up...
the first one who let go.
If ever you forgot,
I want to let you know.

a not-so-deep but straight to the point poem

Greeting

How are you?
I miss greeting you every morning.
Telling you that you’re the first thought that I had.
I miss greeting you good night.
Telling you you’re the last person whom I have thought of.
To tell you morning and night that I miss you,
—that I love you.
Are you feeling the same way too?

Signs

Oh, such a change,
What a shame we can't take it anymore,
No one thought this would be us,
running on the wheels,
we went too far,
Look back at the sun,
at those mighty stars,
like we watched them when,
when we thought of this life,
life of sugarcoated candies and honey,
Of when there were Christmas lights,
heaps of snow and glasses of wine,
of the times I'd hold you,
You in my arms.
Where did it go?
Why doesn't it snow?
Why aren't there any signs that you show?

Why does one leave you in the middle of nowhere ?

Two on Sunrise

My look perched on its medicine,
Twin hazel pills approaching slowly
Going down even slower,
My look took the dose that I tried to convince the doctor, is insufficient
I was told I couldn’t get another prescription
I’d have to adjust and make do, and cope, and adapt…
My doctor says it’s for my own good
And in time I’d feel more appreciative, less trapped
But I don’t really have time… it’s the other way around
And time has Me instead… And I refuse to be a resource to be had
I just want those caramel pills
I just want to feel the sun spill into my heart…
With an unending kiss that bears your name...

Dear You~Dream

Where are you?
What are you doing now?
Under this endless sky, are you there?
A future where we all smiling and happily laughing
Is what I always dream of
Yet like the passing summer wind on that day
It disappeared

A story that just about to begin
Ended without any warning
Memories of distant past I recur to remember
Yet I can’t see your face
Like how the grains of sand in my hands keep on slipping;
You too, had slipped away

Where are you?
What are you doing now?
Are you looking at the same sky I am looking now?
I keep on praying all my wishes
Yet it seems it was never heard
As my voice was drowned out by the cry of cicadas

Returning to those times I deeply longed
The cicadas say it's too late
But still I keep on praying that I’ll reach out to you
That on the other side of this sky you are there
Please believe in me when I say
"Please be happy. I love you."

Where are you?
What are you doing now?
Even it will rain, there will still be an endless blue sky after
So let's start over once more
And hope that the ending will be happy this time
As the cicadas sing their song
Let’s go home and hold hands

Meeting you is a miracle. And to meet you once again is a dream. Inspired from Higurashi no naku koro ni song Dear You

You Got Me Thinking

How I doesn't include you
But to us it means two
Not to kiss you, or to be near you
To hold you or fall in love with you
But just one;
To do it all one time.

Not sure where I was going with this, but it was in my drafts.
