She

She, the one you've loved before

the one who caught your eyes

why did you look at her eyes

the way you look at mine right now

She, who have this very long hair

the ones you've brushed before

why ask about her tonight

if you are with me this very night

She, who never cared for you

the one who left you out cold

why still bring her warm gifts

and give me old cold days

She, who loves somebody now

somebody you thought your best friend

But still, why think of her in your dreams

instead wiping off my tears

She, the one I drowned with my tears

the one you saved from the sea

why save someone from the past

and leave me alone this fast

She, who doesn't look at you at all

the one who threw your heart away

why choose to go back to her palm

if I'm asking you inside my arms

She, who made me feel this way

the one who took my place

why was my worth wasn't seen

is it because I am just a boy?

Author's Note

I am actually planning on continuing this but I decided to make another poem like a sequel to this one. And like write poems in this story in the different POVs of the characters, I hope you look forward to it :D

Ang ganda naman ng tulang ito...hehe

[Pete]

this reads very smoothly. softly but packed with emotion. punchy ending. repetition of 'She,' in each stanza is quite effective. a catchy, sorrowful read that holds and leaves its mark.

If it only worked that way.... unfortunately love is an emotion you can't control... you writing brings out the pain incredibly well. Good job!

Some interesting ideas are forming. Valentine

like a dog chasing his tail,when he catches it he knows he made a mistake,,why look back at the past instead of the future,look at the one that loves you
