My 2nd entry:
Title: Ma Chérie
Wandering the streets of France,
Looking for that someone to dance.
Once upon a time, I remember clearly,
Friends we were, and very much dearly.
The feeling was right, but the time was not so.
I cursed fate as I let you go.
Knew inside, as u bid me goodbye,
This was the last time I behold you in my eyes.
The tears would fall but I didn't want you to worry,
Deep inside me, my feelings I bury.
Told you I was fine, that I didn't mind,
Within, I was so lost, it felt like I was blind.
Waiting, for your return, the agonies endured,
But, drifted apart we have, like two ships unmoored.
Against myself, mighty battles I waged inside,
As I fought to leave your image untarnished against the tide.
What is this tide which overwhelms me?
The feelings of blame for you that be.
While we may not be like what we once were,
I'll never let the blame lie on you here.
And so for us, it ends this way.
What of the future, I cannot say.
Maybe we weren't fated to be together,
but our memories I shall cherish, I swear, forever.
Cherishing the Times
Here by the side I sit
Facing the cooling breeze
I remember
As time ever pass by without stopping
Once we sit here
Making wishes on pebbles
And with your left hand and my right hand
We throw far into the vast blue river
Here on the hard ground
I see marks of our presence here long ago
Your name and mine together forever
Etched in my heart I know
Our bond
Ever grow stronger
From many words to none
Left are smiles and laughter
Further on
Another name is added
Now three no longer two
Laughter abound then
Now as we grow
Things are here and gone
But still we three are still here
Laughter still abound
When time passes
I wonder about our friendship
Whether it is the same
Nope instead it grow
Sadness were there
Tears were there
Ignorance were there
But smiles abound
Here as we gather round
I thought then
Though we are around
But things are no longer the same
There are things I will forget
But not the memory we share
In time
I will look back and smile
I remember our bad and good times
I lost count of the tears and smiles we have shared
But I know I will not forget
I cherish the times we have
another just for fun poem...
I am Strong
Time flies by,
When you are not by my side,
Heart went stale,
Wishing it would beat still.
Promises made,
To be broken one day,
Trust betrayed,
All gone on that fateful day.
Yet I will be strong,
I am strong,
Tears will stop,
My heart will go on.
A smile i'll put,
On my face again,
Even when my heart,
Is still in pain.
This is I promise,
To my own heart,
I will protect it,
And guide it hard.
No one shall come near it,
To touch or harm it,
No one shall see it,
The blood and wound on it.
Yet in all these,
I will be strong,
Standing above these,
My smile will shine once more.
Acceptance
Do I cherish you
You ask yourself
As here I am looking at you
You wondered
There were times when I look elsewhere but you
This is when you feel insecure
Yet when I look at you always
You feel too stuffed
When I gift you with my heart
You wonder how sincere am I
When I gift you with simple thing
You accept without questions
How much you think
I wonder when I look at you
But you never knew
CosÂ’ you are in a far away land
You wonder always
I can only watch you from afar
As you show a questioning expression
I never wonder but accept reality
