★How I Stopped Writing Love Poems For You

You may have forgotten the very first time we laid eyes to each other,
But my good old mind remembers every little speck of that moment,
I thought I was trapped inside the vortex of forever.
The bewitching spell you cast on me is still potent,
Rendering me restless, scalding my sleeping desires.
I love to be with you even if you're far,
I love the way you blow the embers of my fires,
The way you heal my wound into a scar.

I have been dreaming of endless possibilities,
Of wishes coming true to life,
Of good endings even at bleak certainties.
But this one-sided love is naught but a strife.
I have written countless of love poems for you,
And all of them are gone to ashes.
I dare not make a move for I fear to paint my heart blue.
I dare not show my feelings for I'm certain they'll be thrown as trashes.

You know I love you, but this heart of mine is simply just a coward.
I would have loved to write songs about the fantasy of our love.
I would have loved to continue on moving forward.
But I guess the tales of the brokenhearted lad need to be freed, freer than a dove.
And I'm adamant that you'll be happier not knowing about my secret,
The secret that shackled me in stillness.
If I have only known from the start that this love is hard to interpret,
Then I should have condemned my feelings in vagueness.
