IF I COULD GRANT YOU THAT

Folder: 
2001 Poetry

I wonder if you are always like that

one who takes command without any demand

you seemed to be relishing to whatever I give

you are always geared towards my lead



what is it in me that you find so engaging?

whatever I say you follow without a warning

always ready to achieve all that I seek

were you ever thinking of your own need?



I tried to appreciate all of your strivings

counting the good deeds you are unselfishly giving

but appreciating does not satisfy anything

for that someone we want could not fathom a thing



your patience is drowning me deep into the sea

sucking my veins until your're draining me

I wish to succumb to an endless effort

but everytime I gaze it's HIM that I crave



hope you would understand that I cannot give

what you long for will never be fulfilled

you know how much I tried but still is futile

I'll just say a prayer for you to accept it
