Somebody To You
Endless Horizon Aug 2014
I can honestly say,
I fell down the rabbit hole that was you,
Unable to keep my grip.
Got lost in those eyes,
that pull me in
closer to oblivion.
Drowned in the liquid that was your being.
I couldn't do anything.
I felt so helpless.
But back then, I loved helpless.

loved

But now that it's all over,
I don't want you to forget.
All those moments together,
were they all a dream?
Those days,
where our eyes would meet.
Are they to be locked up?
Another forgotten memory?

I'm glad I climbed out of the rabbit hole.
I'm glad I fought back.
I'm glad I didn't drown.
Now, since there is another,
there is one thing.
One thing I hope I accomplished.

*Is that I was somebody to you
My first properly written poem yay.

Coarse
Endless Horizon Aug 2018
Nothing feels like this.
Empty feeling
Droning on
And on
People are behind me.
Can you stop? I don't want to think about that right now.
Right now.
Right now.
Can you leave?
Can I leave you?
Bye.
bye

Loving Without
Endless Horizon May 2015
My body cannot comprehend,
My mouth cannot utter,
My mind cannot construct thoughts

Correctly

At the thought of living life without
Seeing
Meeting
Talking to
The one I drool over every single day.

It seems like I can no longer function.

But I know
That the one I drool over
Does not answer to my affections

Yet,
It's as if I can't stop thinking about
Can't stop living without
Can't stop loving without

**You
Something that's on my mind. I can't let go. But I must.

Why Didn't I
Endless Horizon Aug 2014
I now remember,
all the times I had with her.
That day at the park,
that day when I treated her to dinner,
or that day when we went to the movies,
and stayed for far too long.

I now remember,
all the things about her.
Her gorgeous eyes,
her bright smile,
or how our hands fitted perfectly.

But those things don't matter anymore

Now I've been left with this
aching pain.
I've been spending sleepless nights,
still thinking about her.
Oh why didn't I see,
just how much she treasured me?

It was foolish of me
letting her leave.
If only I can turn back time,
to spend one more moment,
one more second
with her in my arms.

Why didn't I show that I love her.
Why didn't I show that she meant the world to me.
But these things don't matter anymore.
Since now all I have,
is myself to blame.
***Something got messed up and I accidentally deleted my original post (sorry to those who faved and commented :<), so I'm posting it again with minor alterations***

Leave Me Here
Endless Horizon Jun 2015
I still remember the day
When our arms would go around
Each others shoulders.
I still remember
You acting crazy
And asking me to do the same

I still remember the day
You became another person
And when I didn't approve
You left and went to someone else
Don't you lie to me,
You're the one that started it all

Where has it all gone?
Memories of us now undone
Why did it have to end?
After you went down that river bend
You don't need me anymore
Just leave me here and go!

Forget
Endless Horizon Nov 2014
I may have came uninvited,
but I hope you find solace when I'm gone.
I may have crept up on you,
but I hope you'll remember the times when our eyes met.
I may have cast a bad impression,
but I hope you'll find somebody who'll make a better one.
And now on your special day,
have another year to yourself.
But if I may ask of you a favor,
please forget me,
as I have forgotten you.
Endless Horizon Oct 2014
A boy stood proudly outside,
the front steps of his home.
A note and pen in hand,
carefree.
Basking in the wind that blew,
the trees that swayed,
the ants that crawled upon the stone.

Eyes that saw the world,
examined through a different lens.
Eyes that saw the beauty of a single seed.
Eyes that saw the significance,
of a rock tossed in the pond.
Eyes that saw the fascination,
of a plant once spawned.

Sunshine seemed to follow him wherever he went.
But the rest did not agree.
When he tried to speak,
the beautiful objects he saw,
the complexity he’d seen,
they seemed to put a tape over his mouth.
He tried spreading sunshine.
But it was quickly extinguished.

They told him to keep quiet,
they told him to keep it to himself.
They told him it wasn't right
to voice out such audacious findings.
They told him to shut up.

He went home with this thought,
looming over his head.
Every day, of every week, of every month.
Of every year.
It changed him.

The eyes that once saw,
extravagance…
The ears that listened,
patiently,
The mouth that could only find itself,
spewing words of life.
They all had left him.

His mind was caged.
Thoughts bottled up inside.
Beauty was replaced by ignorance, misery, death.
He became like the others.

And I would dread the day when
his curiosity would be curious
no more.
This has been in my mind since I met a person who was told to keep quiet. I made this for a project for school, but since I was planning to write a similar poem, I'm just going to post it here for all to see.

No.
That's all that can be said.
Just plain
No.

Numbers
Endless Horizon Jul 2014
The homework piles up, and so do our patience.
What do i do? Will i do this, or that?
We go through all that trouble and pain,
For what? Just numbers on a sheet of paper

We do learn. We do study.
But numbers on a paper doesn't define who you really are.
You can be just as creative or intelligent as the next guy.
But i don't think we have to go through that much trial
to get a nice grade.

We focus on the numbers printed on paper.
Numbers.
Numbers don't define us.
Numbers don't say who we are.
But yet that's all were focused at.
The numbers on a sheet of paper.

We become so lost in this trial,
That when we get back to ourselves, we've already gone too far.
Too far to turn back.
For numbers on a sheet of paper.

I'm not telling you to stop trying hard,
But to stop focusing solely on that small card.
Try your best in everything. That's what counts.
Don't get lost in war,
For those numbers on a sheet of paper.
First poem :D

Conflicted
Endless Horizon Feb 2015
I don't know what to feel anymore.
This is against all I've been living for.
Against everything.

I should accept it as it is and
Just move on
I should be the friend that I am
I should be a decent human being

Yet this is against all I've been living for.
Against everything.

I don't know what to feel anymore
Because I feel
*Conflicted.

— The End —
