You once asked me
“What’s the one thing you’ll never forget?”
I blushed so hard
I shrugged, went past
I couldn’t stop thinking
The answer is You..
Busy times, rushy days
We were so occupied in our own ways
But you still made me happy
You gave me your time
Maybe it isn’t such a crime
To call you mine..
The cheesy moments, the awkward smiles,
Your beaming eyes and the way they shined.
The 5 min conversations we struggled to have,
Among the unwanted people, I swear!
I recall the sudden time you tried to touch my cheek,
And I screeched like a crazy freak!
Duh
Sometimes I wonder,
Why does my heart always ponder,
At the very sight of you.
The calls you give me out of the blue
What did I do to deserve someone like you?
We’ve been through ups and downs,
We’re in this messed up world,
But at the end of day
I miss you so bad, I wish you could stay..
But nature has its plans,
I know we try, but we just can’t,
live in harmony.
I don’t blame you, neither must you.
You need to rest and
come back some other day,
I won’t mind the delay.
As you said “it’s peaceful, when you’re away”
I gladly give you your space !
But once you’re done meditating,
And you’re mind’s finally free,
Come back
For I shall wait ..

- Comment from author about the poem: We’ve all been through a phase of self realisation . The mistakes we made, the misunderstandings, the pointless arguments.. we wish we could go back in time, erase them all and rewrite a happy story instead. But that’s how life is.. we cannot get all that we want, sometimes we just need to accept it the way it is. This poem speaks about how sometimes it’s best if we stay away from the ones we love, not because we dislike them but because they’re better off without us being a part of their life.. it’s less complicated and all we want is the best for them …… I self designed the poster .. 🖤

once started, I couldn't stop my eyes from wandering slow down the page and drinking every word in .. write on my friend .. Neville
Thank you for reading 🧡
That was a very lovely poem. I thoroughly enjoyed the familiarity of every word.
Thank you for reading 🧡
Love will find a way in time. Well written poem ChrisLyn. 👍
Thanks for appreciating 😊
A good write, O.K. better than good. What struck me about it was the tone, very free-spirited. More about desire than Love though. "We just can't live in harmony" isn't a recipe for long term relationships, but maybe for a free spirit that's all she wants.
Your poem is well expressed, your message comes through clearly.
I thought your poster to be clever, and artistically poignant. you matched it to your words. Liked it. - Phil A.
