THE LOVE THAT WAS

Folder: 
2001 Poetry

I was sitting along the corridor entree

Awaiting my colleagues for a grand spree

Struck by and by an image who passed by

And sited beside me like I didn’t mind



Time passed by and none arrived

But it didn’t matter for I enjoyed the sight

The figure sitting next to me snared my sigh

Unaware of the feeling that would make me cry



The next thing I knew we were already conversing

Giving and taking metaphors of everyday living

The humor he had drove me closer to him  

As if we’ve known each other for quite sometime



I thought that was the closing of our meeting

The end of what supposed to be a one-time greeting

But I was wrong, he came so sudden without a warning

I wasn’t prepared for this kind of feeling



My life was such a boring until you gave it a meaning

Not just a meaning but a meaning that was cleaving

Shortly I knew that this would lead us to nothing

For you’re no longer free for this kind of cuddling



God knows I want this to continue

To prove to you how much I feel for you

And be strong just as you want me too

Never fearing, never minding, just you and our feelings



But that just isn’t me,

And I know we will never be happy

Knowing fully that we are putting someone in misery

And by so doing, we’re only dragging our life in infamy



So I decided to part our ways,

To end this seemingly unending games

Enough that we had cherished moments to reminisce

And it will forever remain a sweet memory
