I must be a clock...
For I wish for your happiness 60 times a minute...
Which is the same number of times my heart beats...
So my heart beats because of you...
We're not together...
Perhaps never will...
But I can only ask for life to treat you like the princess you are...
I wake up everyday wishing for the day to be better for you than the day before...
And that will never change...
It will only change when my heart stops beating...
And at that point...
I will continue loving you from heaven...
Time is eternal...
So is my love for you...

I have nothing to sell...
I have no money to buy either...
For my only possessions are my words, my thoughts and my feelings...
Maybe I will stand by the shopping plaza...
With a sign that says 'poems on sale.. buy one get two'...
Or 'For every three poems... a free sonnet'...
Perhaps '2021 poems at 2020 prices'...
The reality is no one would pay for them...
So I will give them for free...
For a poet, everyday is boxing day...
As we live to share our dreams and ideas...

I write for you everyday...
I miss you everyday...
I blow kisses in the wind for you everyday...
I regret losing you...everyday...
And I will love you everyday...
For as long as I live...
And maybe a bit longer...
And everyday I wake up hoping you would have changed your mind...

You don't know it...
Perhaps you don't even realize it...
But you really brighten my days...
My days are not the same when I don't see you...
Or don't hear your voice...
You make me smile again...

What I want for Christmas...
Is to sit close to you...
By candlelight...
As close as I can...
So my eyes will be reflected on yours...
So close that our lips will instinctively fuse...
And become one...
With the candle's flame as our only witness...
Our eyes will say I love you...
Even though not a single word will be exchanged...
That is what I want for Christmas...
Perhaps it will never happen...
For your heart chose someone else...
But that is what I will always want for Christmas...
For as long as I live...
Because I realized I will never stop loving you...

From the bottom of my heart...
And with a tear rolling down my cheek...
I once more tell you I love you...
I know your heart already chose someone else...
It is hard for me to accept it...
But I love you so much...
And all I want is your happiness...
That I will be happy if you are happy...
Your happiness is my treasure...
The spark of your eyes a gift for my senses...
And the radiance of your smile a memory for an eternity...
This is where I say goodbye...
Tears are now on both cheeks...
If he loves you just 1/100th of what I love you...
You will be really happy...
For he will kiss the floor where you walk...
Imagine now how much I love you...
The sun is out now...
It is a new day...
Go and enjoy your new found love...
I hope he will really treasure you...
You are a woman worth going home to...
Once more...
From the bottom of my heart...
I love you...
I'll always miss you...
And I will be happy if you are happy...
Even if you are holding someone else's hand...
Good bye...
I will never forget you...
Even if perhaps you already forgot me...

And it finally dawned on me...
Even before my eyes opened for the day...
My heart woke up knowing that I love you...
It is a conflicting feeling...
Knowing that I love you...
But at the same time...
Knowing that you don't...
That is my true awakening...
And now I feel like living a nightmare during daytime...
