A Prose For You

📷 image credit www.deviantart.com/roadioarts/art/The-Agony-338383703

I never thought your death had an impact on me...

I don't know why...

It may be the past that we had shared once...

along with family, friends, and neighbors...

It may be a fear, that all of my contemporaries, 

all that had been a part of me is gone...

It may be compassion,

for you have labored for what you wanted in your life...

compassion, for I have seen 
that you seem tired 
but catching up... 

your last video and pictures say so...

compassion,

that you may not have experienced the love you 

wanted...

It may be a regret,
 for not letting you
 again in my life...

Life is really short..looking at all my pictures...

where am I when you were sad and lonely...

where am I all those years...

I know... but I stopped talking to you...

I never seemed to bother...

 the way you look at me on two different occasions...

..when my father and your mom died...

I know, you were the one who defended me for the way my hair looks...

The look that you wanted to hug me...

but then I ignored it and became passive...

I don't even know if I can go and see you for the last time...

I am crying... I was your 'Mie.. 

I am actually blaming myself for that one more chance...

When you found out we have the same fate in love...

I was dumbfounded by your late sorry...

I laughed it off...

our song 'Count on you to be there, you will forever be important to me.." 

..but I never dared to say it to you...

I'm crying but what right do I have...

I was but will never be yours, 

as you were but will never be mine...

yet, thank you for those days... 

treating me as a fragile one 

to be taken care of...

'coz I know you have seen me how I was as a little girl... 

we almost grew up together, 

five years my senior

you were the one who treated me like my father did...

thank you for the many "duck eggs"...

thank you for serving your people.. you have a good heart...

 I'm sorry, too...

Petals Fall

📷 credits to gifer.com

The petals that fall

Florets crumble one by one

How winds never cared

Wind blows everywhere

Its breeze can be felt somewhere

Until it's all gone

Lying on earth's ground
That once elegant bearing
The gale's way of joy.

A colorful sight
To the eyes, then to the ground
Petals paint the air

Stranger

📷 credits to the owner

Let me know who you are,
A stranger walked towards me.
The empty stare, a million things.
Yet the smile brought comfort to the wariness in me.

A gleaming eyes that stark through me,
Seeking the soul out from within,
Wondering eyes searching deeper,
Looking vigilantly for something amiss.

Continuous wandering...
Finding ourselves in each others' arms,
Unmindful of the past that they wanna leave behind...

No Te Amo..

📷 EmperatrizV

Estas son las palabras que se han dicho.

These are the words that have been said.

Esta es la última frase que recordaría.

This is the last phrase that I would remember.

¿Cómo pudo pasar? 

How could it happen? 

Como es posible..

How could that be...

Me cuidaste la primera vez 

y fue diferente.

You cared for me the first and it was different

Me amas la última vez 

You love me the last time 

pero todo se ha ido ahora.

but it is all gone now.

¿Realmente me has cuidado?

Have you really cared for me?

¿Alguna vez me has amado?

Have you ever loved me?

¿Cómo puede un hombre decir lo

How can a man say 

 que no estaba en su corazón?

what was not in his heart?

¿Cómo puede un hombre hacer lo 

que no se pensaba?

How can a man do what was not thought upon?

¿Cómo puede un hombre desnudar su alma

como si nada hubiera pasado?

 How can a man bare his soul 

 as if nothing happened?

Cómo puede uno no decirlo sino demorar..
How can one not say it but delay...
No te amo

I don't love you

HelpLess

When you seem helpless..

 to voice out 

what you are going through..

Not even 

the nearest from you 

can hear..

You keep on fighting,

but you don't know,

not really sure..

until when..

You thought you could..

but the last time you checked, maybe 

you will or shall..

Now, understand this.. 

why the Japanese do it?..

Honors..

Humiliation..

no one they thought

can save theirs.

We can't judge..

We can't tell,

what's going on..

until you have been 

into that sinking reality.

No one can tell..

the pain,

the somberness..

depression kills.

Unknowingly knowing

the fear of things

that you thought

you couldn't do.

You just have 

to keep in mind..

a few 

are relying on you..

You have to be rescued.. 

you shouldn't be alone..

Let those

that inspire you

 to live,

to go on,

be with you.

Fear the thought

of knowing..

you could do that..

halting your world.

Let your heart out..

isn't it the worse 

or the worst thing?

Think..

 of the wonderful times..

silence..

sighing..

Help me.. Let me go..
