Here you go again

Appearing in front of me

Smiling..beckoning

As if it is but natural

When I have already taken steps

To stop this insane feelings

To turn around and not look back

But here you are

Invading my peace of mind

Suddenly..without so much as a warning

I feel disoriented

Confused again

And my resolve wavering

I feel weak just seeing your smile

Innocent? Oh no!

You knew! You knew you melted my disguise

My mask fell apart

And found myself answering your smile

Beaming as if you are a gift

Early in the day

Like an idiot I was fooled again

And this what's hurt most

That after your smile

Which looked like a promise

Again...you ignore me

Only minutes had passed

But I was a fool waiting

Waiting and being left alone

Here...just to hear you say


Yes I will be there.

Fondness?

I hope so

Coz if this is more than that

Perhaps it's foolishness

Beyond insanity

And I can't deal with this

No way

Never

This is crazy

Madness

To feel this way

More than fondness

Is not acceptable

It is way too preposterous

Yeah some would call it absurd

Even laughable

To feel ridiculously infatuated

With you

Yes..you!

So I have to stop here

Now

Right now

And breathe some air

Cleanse the mind

Focus on reality

And be mature enough

To deal with this foolishness

Let it go

Turn around

Never look back

Take a step

And walk away


For good.

I saw him first
I talked to him first
He was like heaven sent
To my lonely heart.

Nights seemed endless
Whenever we exchanged messages
My eyes never felt sleepy
Each time my phone beeps.

His presence is a breath of fresh air
He lights up everywhere
Whenever ... However...
I feel like ******* the air he breathes.

How does he do it?
Nonchallant and yet strong
His smiles... His gaze...
As if looking thru my soul.

And now you say...
He looks the same way
To you as he did me
Like you are the only one.

I wondered...

Does he make you sleep late at night, too?
While sending cute little messages?
Feeling that excitement
While heart pounds?

I saw him first
I met him first
We exchanged smiles first
He looked at me as if I was the one.

But I guess first does not mean anything
As long as he can look again
Towards someone
Who is gullible enough
To think she saw him first
To think he looked at her first
And made her feel
She is extraordinary
And that she is one and only.

If this is what first means
Then it's only an illusion
I don't want to be a part of.

Here goes the epic plot of most dramas
The unending dislike towards a man
They think not suitable for their precious daughter
As if they hold his fate
Or that they are a royal like Your Highness
The hypocricy is endless
Belittling a man's ability
Like they knew exactly how he would fail in the future
But the only thing they did was crush his pride
That surely would be his strength to go on
And succeed in life
If only to make them see
How wrong they were to assess him as a man
To step on his worth as a human
Just because he loved their daughter
Now I saw myself back then
When you were being denied
To pursue our dreams of getting together
I suffered as you suffered
And the only thing left for us to do
Was to let go.
**** this drama plot of a romance
Which depicts reality in a cruel way
Letting love witness  broken wings
Making young hearts ****** in pain
I want to hurl something at my tv
It is a mockery of my past
A deep etched pain that has yet to be healed
And i wonder..
Will it ever be.

My very own life's drama.
Inspired by a drama

laughter,
no more
bare room …
only your scent lingers
silence…
it’s deafening
echoes on the four walls
hallow
empty, empty, empty

I felt your presence
Your silent footsteps
Still I heard
You seemed uncertain
Not sure if it was okay
My back somehow turned anxious
I don't know if you felt it
I stayed the way I was
Not turning my head

I waited
And you stepped sideways
Away from me
For a while
As if gauging
If I would be accomodating
You saw me flip a hair
Talk back to someone else
Not caring one bit
If you were there

Now you started to walk
Rounding a pillar
Straight to my line of vision
You made your presence known
I looked at you
Casually speaking your name
You looked at me
In the eye
Did you see something?
Was there a telltale sign
That I was anxious as you
Like we were in a fight
And now contemplating reconcillation

Laughing inside
Yeah..we were fools
Engaging in silent war
Ignore..reject..
As if testing who will hold
Power between us
I smirk...
I knew it
You would not be able to hold on
You will succumb
I am your temptation
Someone you could not easily dismiss
However you wanted

In the end
Triumphantly
I won.

This game of me and you
I wonder when will this end?

When you left my world became dark
Tears rolled down on my face
As I wept staring at your back
I could not see properly
You who kept on walking without a backward glance
I tried to see thru my tears
But you were a blur from a distance
I tried to stop weeping
I wanted to memorize my last glimpse of you
But tears kept on flowing
Like a river there was no stopping
I tried to utter your name
A whisper that caught in my throat
Only me who could hear
The wind blew your name
Fading in the silence

I felt all alone...
In misery...
Hurting...
When you left.
