"sometimes i get tired of all the struggles i have yet to fight, all the stories i have yet to tell, all the places, the words, the people, i have yet to travel, to write, and to see...

sometimes i just want to sit in my own little corner and watch the world pass me by...

sometimes i wish someone would just sit there, quietly beside me, and know, without saying a word, without asking a question, all the fears and demons hiding inside me,

and somehow i wish that someone would understand.

sometimes i ask myself, if you could be that someone somehow sometime."

i have no words to ease my hapless fate
nor shadowed corners to hide myself in
the songs of hope they sang were sang too late
while rhymes they wrote were all so broken in

had cupid landed on someone else's heart
then mine own eyes would have escaped despair
but luck decided for love to depart
and leave my broken self beyond repair

i know someday there'll be more dreams to make
more stars, more skies, more places to behold
till then i know this grief i have to take
perhaps to make my heart more strong, more cold

till then, i pray, your name will never bring
as much sadness as one forgotten thing

the first poem for the new year

Posted by poeticnook on 1/05/2004 01:05:00 AM in
i saw you last night, your eyes were filled with stars
bright stars i could not see
lonely stars that have lost their meaning for me

i walked towards you but away from you
watching my madness fall
in between the places we dare not go

i love you still..
but with a heart that does not skip a beat when i hear your name
i love you still...
but with a love that has no more substance, no point, no purpose.

last night, you looked back at me
with a faint smile
nodding a greeting in the distilled silence

we blinked, at the exact same time,
and for a moment,

we are,
you and i

but you walked away under the hazy moonlight

and yes,
even in dreams,

you leave me.
