New Year Resolution

“This year I’m going to love and be loved.”

For the first time in a while, I saw hope in her eyes.


Questions i’d never know the answers to #1

Am I really that insignificant to you?


Hope

One day, you’ll know

the strength it took

to stay away

when all I wanted

was to be with you.


Diary of a Nostalgic

Last night, I was hit. I was hit so hard. I was hit by a strong wave of nastalgia. And  I wanted to write to you. I wanted to talk to you. But I couldn’t. I read your name and for some reason I couldn’t write a word. So I cried… I cried myself to sleep.


Love Letter #2

I write about you.

I write for you.

I write to you. 


Love letter # 1

Honey, I love you

More than I thought I could

More than I thought I would 


Failed attempt

Every night 

I go to bed with one thought in mind

“Tomorrow, I’m going to forget”

And when tomorrow comes,

I forget to forget


I wrote this for you

I still think of you when I write.

I still imagine you reading my words, overwhelmed with jealousy, thinking ‘who is it about this time?’.

I still wonder how can you not know, that it was for you, only you.

Or maybe you did…

Maybe you did…


Before & After

I remember 

When I wished that I was better

When I wished that what I had to offer was enough

When I wished that I, myself, was good enough

But now I pray…

I pray for strength

The strength to accept

The strength to forget

And the strength to love again


23:10 p.m.

You came into my life

And taught me how to love…

Now please, before you leave

Teach me how to let go…
