Out of Sight
yuyu Aug 13
The moon is still bright on the other side,
Even if it's out of your sight
I am still doing okay even though you abandoned me, I can still shine without you even though it might hurt a little but just know that even without you seeing me, I am still me on the other side of your world

Did the time stop or did I?
yuyu Nov 2023
I fell in the past
while the agony embrace me tightly,
I wail silently, only for the echoes to come back to me,
As nothing fills in here,
Because everything is back to the present days

My heart is an anchor,
Attached to the past
Trapping my mind,
To replay the detestable dreams

I slipped away from the dark,
Only to bring me back in the past,
As I follow the path, it just slips back,
Because everything is back to the present days

Why am I left alone?
When did I realize that I am here alone
When we are supposed to climb out together

I kept on wandering,
Wondering,
If I should swallow the misery,
So I could send my heart to you

Why am I the only one trapped in the past
when the earth keeps on spinning,
Did the time stop or did I?
when you are the only one stucked with the past while everyone else has came back to the present days so you just sit there with all the pain

A big tree
yuyu Jun 2023
If we were trees,
You would be a big tree next to me
You'd be the bigger tree next to me, blocking the sunlight for me to grow and when the time comes, I would just die silently in your hands

On “Do Not Disturb”
yuyu Mar 2023
Looking down the ground,
I stare at the bright lights,
Alone in the dark night,
Alone in my 5th floor apartment

The cold breeze greets my skin,
While the heads greet each other down the city,
The night is as bright as the day,
Even when the moon is hiding under the thick fog

Ting! I said I’ll text you back, but I never did

I wonder how they interact,
Because I’m only in no contact,
Only my dark room calms me down,
As I don’t have to hide from anyone

Ting! I said I’m busy, when I’m in bed

The outside is loud but why is it quiet here?
The cars are honking, the music is screaming,
But my wall bounces it back,
Just like how I push people away

Ting! I said I ran out of battery, when I ran out of energy

Maybe I should take it slow,
So that I can follow the flow,
Just like how the moon starts to show up,
To face the bright busy city

I stare at the moon in the empty sky,
Even when it came out from the fog,
I wonder why the moon is alone together with me,
Why? Do you also push those stars away?

Ting! I said I’ll text you back...
when you struggle to text people back...

Bitter truth, Sweet lie
yuyu Mar 2023
Swallowing the bitter truth takes a lot,
Sugar coating it like a sweet lie takes an effort
it hurts when someone tells us the truth because it's the truth but deep down we know that it's not the whole truth, but it's not easy to manipulate ourselves to feel better with a sweet lie

Truth
yuyu Mar 2023
She listened patiently,
But as the words taste bitter
She feels lonely
So does her heart gets hotter

She recalls her mistakes,
As if she was at fault,
Even when she also gets a heartbreak,
Keeping it safe in a vault.

Her smile blooms
At the silhouette of her man,
Waiting patiently for him
to reach her

Her smile wilts
While his mouth utters the words,
As his smile fades away

Pink Rose That You Gave
yuyu Jun 2022
The pink rose that you gave,
Has always been alive,
Never wilted from my heart,
Because it has always been you

My comfort has always been you,
Because you would always knew,
Even without any words,
You would always be there,
Even when I was not

The pink rose that you gave,
Blooms a garden of joy,  
Rushes the bees to work,
Wakes the butterflies
in my stomach

Do you remember
When we were in the pink rose fields?
You were my best view,
I want you to know,
That you will always be

Your eyes greet me with a smile,
Everytime and every while
Our eyes meet,
I can feel the love
Deep inside your brown eyes.

My love,
Thank you,
For the pink rose
cheerful love that we both experience, the comfort and love that I received from you was the best experience ever

For Her
yuyu Apr 2022
Barefooted in the loose white gown,
Her dark hair is bouncing
As she free roaming in a far-reaching green,
The green is full with bloomed flowers,
She reaches her harmless hand
towards the Amaryllis,
Gifting it to herself,
As a promise
to believe in her soul,
Always.
Mingled in her hand,
She brings it closer to her *****
her melodious heartbeat is felt,
She feels alive,
Once again.
Her heart, her hair, her hands, herself
saved her again.
Because she knows she’s alone together.

one and only
yuyu Feb 2020
it's not difficult,
once you understand it
but
to understand it is even harder,
I believe only
the real one
would understand it
as if it's nothing difficult,
you may think that you need everyone
but
actually you only need the one

The Last Goodbye
yuyu Oct 2018
The days with you
were perfect,
even the sky was beautiful and bright
and true that all I wanted before was love
but now
at the very last time
before we both go to different paths,
or more to before you leave me,
all I wanted is to be appreciated
to be remembered
as I was the person
who made you happy before.
you can stop remembering me,
but not our memories
until you find someone new
who could make you happy more than I did
then you can say goodbye to our precious memories

— The End —
