I was glad you're back
In me, It was destined
It was like magic
And the joy sprouted again
This time with glee

I knew you still want me
And I'm glad you did
Because the moments you were gone
We're the time I search for you

On the 24th of December
I plan to give you my Yes

Days before, I waited for you
But there were no replies
I waited...again... I waited

Early morning, a fine day
I was hoping you'd say 'Hey'
7 days before Christmas eve
When I knew, I will never have you

Hoping you're happier with her
Cause now you left me confused,
blanked and broken...

Still, I'm sorry
That you can't wait

But sad goodbye
For I chose to Love you now
It was painful when you said you Love me but the next day you were gone...
How? Why did you leave?

When do we ever say we're over
With all the what if's and why
The sleepless nights
And the morning aches...

Is it the days you're okay,
Or is that just the thought of okay
But when that song is played,
Do you smile? or weakens you?

When was the last time you tell yourself "I'm done"
Was it done once? twice? thrice?
Or countless times?
When do we ever say we're over

Could it be forced?
Should it be now...
Most of us would say they're finally free and over it. But the truth is they lie just to cover it.
Therese Syang Jun 2018
I saw you when we were young
But never get the chance to talk

I still can see you even when you're away
But not quite

Now that we've grown up
I still feel the same

There are moments I've watch you from afar
and I was taken for granted

Now that you will forever be afar...

I guess, I have to admit...

That you will never be mine

I'll stop here.
my feelings for you will be a part of me forever
but I guess It'll be a history for the both of us.
And you don't have to know.

We started confused
Blank, Pained and Unsure

We have our own excuse
To Live,  To Ask,  To Love

On that Bell Tower ledge we met; Same thoughts...
To Fall, To End, To Let go

I dragged you away
Showed you the real way
Helped you come back again
And Kept you from pain

We wandered all the Bright Places
The Mountains...
The Churches...
The River...
The Lake...

Even the Blue Hole where we date

As time passes by I healed you from sore
And my Feelings grew more
So as the pain, the ache
And the uncertainties we break

We both fell from with in
And you tried to keep me out of the pain
Yet It was as heavy as sin
That I can't bear to feel

You held on
But I let go
You did not know
That I ended so

I know It'll cause you Pain
And I may never be seen
But my heart, my soul and my memory of you
Will forever be and always be
with you.

You are brave, please believe...
This is inspired by the book 'All The Bright Places' by Jennifer Niven. I consider it as my all time favorite book. The story is painful, lovely and real. A-must-read book.

This poem is based on Finch's Point of View (Finch is the lead male character of the story)

Yes
If you come back
I'll Say yes
Even if It hurts
I'll Say Yes

I know I'd take risk
I know I'd lie
But I'll Say yes
I'll Say Yes to you

To you, who persists
Who wants me
And will not leave me
To be with me.

I'll forget..
the moments I watched him
the chances I gave...
I gave to myself

To see him
Fight for his dreams
Be happy
And achieve all of these

I'll forget and I'll say Yes.

I'll forget him and I'll say yes to you.

Even if it hurts...
Decisions with unstable emotions may be risky.

Be healed by TIME

Colm
Nothing makes my heart sink
Faster to the bottom of this chest called ocean
Than a clueless defiance
A disregard for the most basic
The most respectful quiet
Shut your mouth, it overfloweth.
