What You Have To Know

Some opportunities

will only come once…

Unfortunately,

you have wasted your chance.

Sad to say,

I’ve already taught myself

how to unlove you;

hence, the reason

why I left.

I used to think of you

every single day

But you made me feel

like I was a speck of dust

that can be ignored

in your life.

With this,

I say goodbye

please let me go.

I can no longer stay:

that you have to know.

If you have really loved me

just like what you’re saying now.

I’m afraid it’s too late

I’m over you… somehow.

Sad Ending Version of my Response to the Composition of my Friend Christer entitled Stay

Stay

Sitting here all alone
i dont know what to do
i just want you to know
that i need you so

every night and day ( evry night and day )
im always thinking of you
i dont know what to say
i think i love you...

chorus

baby, let me hear you say...
let me know ull stay
right here beside me...

baby, let me hold you're hand
i hope you'll understand
ill swear my love for you, will always be true...

and as time passes by..
i dont know why ( dont know why..)
you wanna say goodbye...( u wanna say goodbye)
and i just wanna die

chorus

baby, let me hear you say...
let me know ull stay
right here beside me...

baby, let me hold you're hand
i hope you'll understand
ill swear my love for you, will always be true...

Secret Wish

I left because I felt

that you wanted me to.

I walked away that door

thinking only of you.

God knows how much pain

I had to underwent.

Halfheartedly, I dragged

every single step.

I decided to leave

so as to give you space.

I kept my distance;

A wall, I made.

Though being stoic

was my usual pretense,

In silence, I wept

and longed for your presence.

If you want me back

just tell me so;

Cause the very moment I left,

I secretly wished

that you didn’t let me go.

The Response

One day, Antz composed a very moving sad poem...

Is It Me?

i wish i could take it all away
the things that are causing you pain
if it turns out to be me
i'll walk away with a crushed heart
but with a smile on my face
knowing you'll be happy
even without me

After reading his poem, I promised myself that I will compose another poem as a response to his poetry... ciempre medyo sad rin.

Maybe it’s not you,

but actually me.

Maybe it’s the other way around:

I have caused you misery.

Forgive me for making you feel

that you have broken my heart.

I'm sorry for not letting you know

that you have done your part.

My life will go on

just like how a river flows.

With or without you:

that, we never know.

If this is goodbye,

then I bid you farewell.

Today is tomorrow’s past…

it's useless to dwell.

I'm Grateful

I’m grateful that time

has healed the wounds.

I’m grateful that my questions

have discovered the truth.

I’m grateful that life

has made me mature

prior to revealing

what may have caused my doom.

Life has its reasons

that are yet to be known.

In time they’ll be answered:

to me, they’ll be shown.

People may have left,

but footprints remain.

Strength has taught me

not to follow their trail.

Each path that we take

has no certainty.

I’m grateful that by now

I learned to just let it be.
