For the one you love

no matter how much you do

it never feels enough.

Poetry and love

both came uninvited.

Poetry stayed,

love went away .

Outside your world

I stay —

not wishing, not waiting,

and no, not stalking,

only gazing from afar

like I gaze at the stars

and the Moon.

Memories are like clouds—

some are like the white fluffy ones

floating carelessly in the sky

bringing happiness and joy

putting a smile on the face

                    and

some are like the dark clouds

that stays, bringing with them

thunder and lightning

causes pain in the heart

and bring tears to the eyes.

Truth doesn't change

just because you choose

not to believe it.

I often wonder —

What is more painful:

to lose someone you once had,

                      or

to never have anyone to lose?

My dream world it was —

A castle I built in the sky.

It came crashing down.

My heart has spoken.

It's your turn now.

Some questions are

answers in itself.

Just because I am

broken and shattered

doesn't mean anyone

can pick me up

and carry me away.

I am still alive

I am still me

Just let me be.
