This year is destined to be unlike any other,
Full of gains, yet marked by quiet losses.

There are moments brimming with anticipation,
And fears of letting something precious slip away.
There are silent guardians watching over,
And blessings whispered softly into the wind.

I find myself waiting for something unknown,
Unsure of what it might be.
Yet, I wish to wait a little longer...
Just a little longer...
Perhaps, something extraordinary might truly arrive.

As I look back on the path we've traveled,
I hope only to leave behind hope,
Without asking for anything in return.
Let us continue this journey together,
Bound by a wordless understanding.
Everything is felt,
And nothing needs to be spoken.
Let us keep walking this way...
Always...

A Hollow Smile
Michael Leo Nov 2024
I'm not sad,
but neither am I truly happy.
It's like... I can wear a smile,
and crack a joke or two during the day.
But when the night falls and silence takes over,
I find myself lost, unsure of what I really feel.
At times, I feel hollow, like an abandoned shell,
a fragile vessel adrift in an endless sea of thoughts.

Your Destiny
Michael Leo Nov 2024
You know I long to be
The one you call your destiny.
So won't you say hello?
This love is haunting me,
And I just want you to know.
The memories we’ve made
Still keep me awake at night.

Smitten By You
Michael Leo Nov 2024
I was smitten from the first time I met you.
It’s just a feeling, like...
When you look at me, I can’t even breathe.
I was just a little boy with a crush on you.
But now, I don't know.
Maybe it’s just too late for us.

No Reply
Michael Leo Nov 2024
Finally,
you didn’t reply to my last message,
and I tacitly refrained from sending another one.
We simply vanished from each other’s worlds.
I used to seek an answer,
but now I realize there’s no need to ask.
Looking back,
every detail is actually the answer.

Hold Me Tight
Michael Leo Nov 2024
Sometimes,
when I say I'm okay,
I just want someone to look me in the eyes,
then hold me tight and say,
"I know you're not,
but I'm here for you,
and everything will be okay.
I promise."

Destined to be
Michael Leo Oct 2024
I never regret meeting you,
nor do I regret loving you.
I admit,
I dream of being with you,
but fate only allows me to love you,
not to possess you.
Thank you for the endless joy you brought me,
May happiness forever be yours, you see.
No matter the distance, the years that may pass,
as long as you remember me,
whether it be love or friendship,
I will always be here.
This promise will never expire.

To Be With You
Michael Leo Oct 2024
If there is a chance,
I would like to drink milk tea with you,
to listen to music together,
to walk together in the evening breeze,
to travel together and see the world.
What I mean is,
to be with you.

What's a soulmate?
Michael Leo Oct 2024
What's a soulmate?
It's like a best friend, but more.
It's the person who knows you better than anyone else in this world.
It's someone who inspires you to be a better person.
It's the person who knew you, accepted you,
and believed in you before anyone else did-or when no one else would.
You will always love them; nothing can change that.

A Never-Ending Story
Michael Leo Oct 2024
Some stories never end, but this one does.

Though distance may stretch, it finds an end—
A journey of 40,000 kilometers at most.
Though we drift far, we too must part—
380,000 kilometers, no more.
Yet heart to heart, though far apart,
We meet in eight short minutes.

I penned the start, you wrote the close,
Will there be another chapter?
Who knows?

I Love Three Things
Michael Leo Oct 2024
I love three things in this world.
The sun, the moon and you.
The sun for the day,
The moon for the night,
And you forever.
For the world,
You are somebody,
But for somebody,
You are the world!

The Bittersweet Loss
Michael Leo Oct 2024
Meeting you was the luckiest moment of my life.
You brought light and warmth to my world,
and for a while, that felt like everything.
But soon, I realized that simply meeting you wasn’t enough.
We crossed paths only to part ways,
leaving me with memories and what-ifs.
The saddest part is knowing we weren’t meant to stay.
You were both a beautiful gift and a bittersweet loss,
reminding me that sometimes the most important encounters
are the ones that don't last.

Raining in your city
Michael Leo Oct 2024
It's raining in your city.
I want to ask if you have an umbrella,
but I don't.
Because I am afraid that you say no,
and I can't do anything about it
just like I say I love you,
but I can't give you the life you want.

Desperately Missing
Michael Leo Oct 2024
Hey, come on!
Let me show you a trick to see
the girl you've been longing for right now.
Ready? Close your eyes. 3, 2, 1...
You actually believe that stupid lie?
Just how desperately do you miss her?

To Part Stays Unchanged
Michael Leo Oct 2024
Reading a book once more,
New insights may unfold,
Yet the ending stays the same.

Meeting you, wasn't it the same?
Moments might change,
Yet never rearrange.

Parting is still parting, heart still yearns.
Yet fate's cold hand has cast us into the deep ocean.
Bitterness still flows.

Go or Stay
Michael Leo Oct 2024
My head says go,
but my gut says stay.
Please tell me that you don’t want me to go.
Let me stay by your side.

Long for you
Michael Leo Oct 2024
No matter how many mountains I write of, every word speaks only of you. Waking from a broken dream, regret lingers with each return to consciousness.
