Poem: Apathetic lover

   We grew up loving each other

   Never a day apart

   Happiness altogether

   Sadness has no place in our hearts.

   Then you saw someone new

   And I learned to hate you too.

   What happened to the love that drove us together?

   Was it the anchor that tore us apart?

   Was there too much love?

   Too much that we grew tired of it.

   I never prepared for this to happen

   Because it never crossed my ever brilliant mind

   You have always and always been there

   And the thought of your absence pains me

   What more on the day of losing you.

Poem: This Life Isn’t Ours To Own

   We were running the same route one step at a time, 

   parallel to each other, 

   side by side following the rhythm of the other. 

   We tried to make it spark

   but it wouldn't work out. 

   We loved one another like no other 

   but circumstances are pulling us away from each other.

   What we had is bad timing…really bad timing.

   Maybe today isn’t our time. 

   Maybe this life isn’t ours to own. 

   Maybe someday, sometime in a different dimension 

   Where that two oceans finally meet 

   I hope we would find our way back to each other 

   and finally be together.
