You left behind a trail I couldn’t follow
You were like a sunset
clouds gather in the sky's embrace
they leave a trail of kisses
when they fades
along the darkness
I could've leave a trail
for you
to follow
If you ever looked back
If you ever decided to look
back to me
back to where I was
You paint my sky in pink hue,
in blues and orange,
you left
while fading along the night
the sweet scented milk and honey
flowing in,
scattering
from behind you,
as I gaze at your back
That small back
who tried carrying the world,
the burden I didn't know
while following your footsteps,
while gazing,
at those long hair I always braided
freely fluttering
I sometimes catch the ends
brush it on my lips
ever so slightly
briefly
so fleetingly
and maybe
if you ever noticed
would you look back?
Your creamy little voice,
cheerfully greeting me
made my ears warm
and long for more,
how I wished
to hear my name
when it lingers
when you utter
so lovingly
I shouldn't have ignored
I shouldn't have made you choose him
you could've choose me
only me
only me
only.
me.
If you could be
So look behind you,
I'm here
still craving the warmth
in your embrace
how small,
how small the embrace you give
and I fit perfectly in it
It was the world you gave me
how small the world we own
i could've made it my own
Your eyes
it shines
it resembles the moon
serene in darkness,
still bright
and I crave those lights you gather
i see...
I wouldn't dare let it shed
a single cry
a tear
a sorrow
for those things
are mine to bear
I couldn't ignore this feeling
any longer
I couldn't ignore the way
you made my heart flail
while falling deeper
and I stop
still looking at your back
and stayed here
hoping
with the dreams
to cover you in my arms
I'll wait
and I'll stay here
but
I thought
i thought I could wait
but
you never once looked back
while you still walked the road
in straight line,
look back
I'm here
Shallows
Something mystic in the view of mine.
She sits at the receding shorelines- at bay.
For she be truly a woman of divine.
She separates her gaze- to my dismay.
Would the hours be so unkind? Would the seconds be so unfair?
For every moment as vivd as her strands.
A seconds loss; my heart tears.
For when cruel time comes; she must return to far away lands.
The oceans envy her smile’s gleam.
Time seems endless in her gaze.
Yet time does not hear any of my endless pleas.
With a blink- she disappears without a trace.
Time was once again, of no use,
For you were sadly but a fleeting moment of muse.
Oh Anna
When I close my eyes and think of you we're on my brown couch that's seen so much of us and had so much love pass through it in that room.
I'm holding you in my arms, I'm so happy to be near you. we're covered in blankets and wrapped in my sweaters. We're holding hands and watching the world pass us by with idle chit-chat and small laughs.
I had to get rid of that sweater, it held too many memories of you and burned my skin to wear it. You took that sweater with you, sometimes you still wear it and I wonder if you miss me too. I can't listen to that song anymore because we used I croon a melody together. Hunched over instruments, smiled as we would sing.
When I close my eyes and think of you we're back on the floor, almost kissing. I wish we had. You're in my kitchen, in my room, you're everywhere I look and I think of you.
When I close my eyes and think of you we're on my couch, your teeth are crooked and your smile is so bright. It's the last time I'll ever hold you, but we don't know that, so we let the world pass us by.
