For the longest time
that I prayed for you,
I am finally done done
And for the last time,
Thank you for hurting me
Thank you for leaving me
Thank you we didn't end up together
Because, finally, I started praying for myself
Finally, I started smiling for myself
Finally, I started believing
that I was more than enough
Finally, I started making progress
In loving myself
More than I have loved you.

You became my sanctuary
in the storm of my life
You became my safe haven
And hopefully, you'll be the reason
Why I was never meant to be with him

You are the sun
Good news: I'm not the moon
Bad news: I'm the planet Pluto
And no matter how many times
I rotate around you,
I will always be the least
of your priority

"Smile for me."
He said, and she smiled
'how I wish you'll always smile for me'
he whispered, at the same time he said
"Say cheese!*"

mask
of
silence
while
your
insides
are
screaming

You put colors to my life
never realized that
putting all the colors together
will make my world dark.

I don't like the sound of the waves
that slowly drowns me away
from the fantasy world
I used to live
and wanting to have peace.

The reality is crawling back
from the bottom, choking me to death.

I had started to inch closer
to the edge of the cliff
and I had no idea
that you're not waiting for me
at the bottom
and it was too late now.

tired but cannot rest
bare in the inside
but filled on the outside
pushing forward
and pulling my **** together
agree to disagree

A twirl of emotions
A twist in my stomach
A chill in my spine
A poem

together with all the memories
and all of the pains
all of the heartaches

keep coming back
crashing the wall
surrounding my heart

he and she will always be that
two eyes showing
unspoken love for each other
two hearts longing
for forever in each other
two ears listening
to each other's heartbeat
and
two lost souls
finding each other

"I love you!", he said.
"Really? You love me?!"
I said, surprised.
"HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY!"
He said while laughing out loud.
"I knew it!", I said laughing,
while my insides are dying.
It will never happened, I whispered.

I can't help but smile
As I watch you dancing
"I have two left feet", as I always say,
little did I know, you'll be my right foot
and teach me how to tango with life.

"Someday, you'll look up to me
I'll be on the stage with my degree."
She promised her mother.

One day, her mother was crying
As she looked at her
But instead of medal,
it was rope, in her neck.

How I wish I know nothing
For when I know something
I understand the thing
And I can't help but feel the pain

"When will I find the right girl for me?"
He said in his sleep
"She's right in front of you."
I said knowing he didn't hear it.

After 5 years

"Its actually coming true.
She's in front of you."
I whispered to him
while he's looking at her
with the look I have given him
five years ago.

"Will you marry me?"
He said while kneeling
in front of her.
"Yes." She said,
the same time
I whispered yes.

You said, "I'll be right back baby.
Daddy will be back."
Minutes becomes hours
Days became weeks
Months became years.

I lost count, until one day,
You came to




my wedding day.

I prayed to all the stars above
for someone like you
to come into my life.
I never knew that
I should be praying to the moon
for you to come.

They said,
"The most beautiful art is
looking into someone's eyes
when they talk about the
things they love."
And I said,
"Or looking at someone you love.
Or maybe, just maybe,
by looking at the mirror
is the most beautiful art
anyone should appreciate."

"You're in deep thoughts,
be careful, you don't even
know how to swim."
Little did he know,
she drown herself
into the sea of darkness
inside her.

I can see stars twinkling in your eyes
the moon illuminating your darkest part
the sun shining brightly
and the whole universe
every time you look at
.

her.

you said you were
afraid to fall in love
but then again,
you become brave
and ...

you fell for her.
