i-rest (1st love)

you've come to me unexpectedly
and i became your worst nightmare.
you are good and sweet loving
while i'm bad and intimidating.

we started as good friends
and ended up as cute lovers.
never i did considered it love
but pure infatuation at first.

since then we both play music
and share every beat of a song.
they said we're perfect for each other
and surely we will meet such forever

but then I came to a crucial state
where i began doubting myself,
if i can still stand this relationship
coz your love is too much loving

i asked a little space, so i can discern
i beg for you to wait, so i can prepare
though it is hard for you, still you said Ok
soon, it lead to hatred and indifference

you love me too much
and you cried the whole night
coz i can't repent what i've done
to you and to your whole life

it's been how many years since then
but you're still hurting and waiting.
i am no longer the same as before
now scared & lost the one you adore

you're friends loves and protects you
they don't even want me inches from you
they call me dumb & unworthy of your love
guess they're right for setting you aside

i am sincerely sorry, forever i'll be sorry
the wasted time, the broken promises
the love and compassion you've given
it was not worthy at all.

Thank You for not letting me down
despite the difficulties and broken hearts
i do not know what's good to say now
just want you to know, I Love You

YOU ARE MY FIRST LOVE

She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
Shes a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too

And I'm a bad boy 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin her heart

And I'm free, free fallin'
Yeah I'm free, free fallin'


SORRY AND SEE YOU WHEN I SEE YOU!

  2. the wonder of the word "nightmare" is that its tone, no matter how you play around on how it should sound like, would still carry that "fearful" phonetic element; the effect is as quick as the snap of your finger.

  6. Poetry is, above than just a play of words, a play on sounds. what makes poetry exclusive and appealing to the intellect is that though it is a play on sounds, poetry should also carry meaning, purpose, backbone, and principle.

    I read your poem and I find you courageous enough to include the word "nightmare" on it. The word has a different tone, it sticks out like a nail, but in the same time I cannot conclude that it doesn't belong here. I can ask you to rewrite the entire poem but if you'd omit the word "nightmare" in your revision, the meaning of your poem would lack balance.

    anyway, keep on writing, and thanks for following. :)

  7. @Perrine: it's getting clear now after reading your comment thrice, LOL, well honestly i don't know anything about making good poems, i just keep on writing and writing, free-flowing, then booom a poem.

    but it's not actually a poem to me, it's more of a personal love letter, that's why i don't think it's good for me to rewrite it.

    anyway, writing is my emotional outlet, though trying hard and looks like a bit hopeless romantic, it keeps me going, hoping also to be a good writer as you are. :)
