THE LONGEST WINTER

Love is like the circle of four seasons... Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. By my poem below, I hereby explained how the love goes as it.

It the beginning of the spring,

And that was the time the school begins,

And as I walked to school watching the flowers blooming,

Carving smile on my face as I am watching,

Reaching the school as the school bell’s rings.

 

I entered the class and the students were all in,

Waiting soon for the teacher to come in,

I sat at my place looking at the others chatting,

But there one girl got me attracted in,

And that’s the new girl in my class going to be named in.

 

The teacher came in announcing her name,

And the new girl was known as Kim,

I couldn’t take my eyes off her it seems,

She could make me weak on my limbs,

And certainly she is the girl in my dream.

 

The ring bells and there goes the lunch break,

I stood beside her while picking the bread,

I wish to greet her but I can’t get my words straight,

Somehow bumping to her make things great,

As I managed to talk a lot more after apology was made.

 

And then I get know a lot more of her subjects after subjects,

Somehow she was definitely my greatest attract,

She could even give me heart attack,

And losing her could make my heart wrecked,

Eventually we fell in love and began our contact.

 

 

End of spring marked beginning of summer,

Some say it is the heated time for lovers

And thus I made the best for my girl,

By strolling with her, taking her to beaches,

And we had so much fun being with each other.

 

We had the same part time job and earned together,

Hoping this moment would last forever,

And I did my best not to stray away from her,

And to keep her from harm and danger,

I will do everything to make her even happier.

 

Summer was the best season in my life,

She was like the queen in my empty beehive,

Her presence made me very much alive,

And I do feel so revived,

And this is the season my love for her thrived.

 

The long summer marked our best vacation,

And many good and unforgettable things had happened,

But soon it will be another new season,

And soon the school might reopen,

Our new chapter will begin next season.

 

Some say love is just a game,

In this game there must be someone to be blamed,

And then things will never be the same,

There will be winner and loser in the game,

I guess they are right with their claim.

 

 

The end of summer, then the fall came,

Finishing the school became everyone’s aim,

And some students rose to fame,

And a president to a society my girlfriend became,

Since then she wasn’t acting the same.

 

She became very busy,

Meeting her was not that easy,

Her attitude thus driving me crazy,

It sometimes made me felt so lazy,

She slowly made me feel so empty.

 

Soon it will be prom night,

I wish to stand by her becoming her knight,

And making her the prom queen under the spotlight,

However thing didn’t come out right,

For her already had her date that night.

 

I found out he was the president for another club,

He was so handsome, heartthrob in the club,

I could only waste my night alone in the pub,

Wishing to forget the past, erasing in a scrub,

Or if I could, flush them down the tub.

 

Soon it will be end of fall,

The school exam would determine our grades an all,

I can’t concentrate after all,

Soon my result will show the overall,

Indeed I could no longer stand tall.

The end of fall, comes the winter,

The snow began to fall, the weather became colder,

The memories we had is getting fader and fader,

She stopped contacting me, we stopped being together,

That was the beginning of my cold lonely winter.

 

For several weeks I kept reminiscing,

Blaming myself on the luck I’m having,

And to everything that I’m losing,

I keep thinking that my life is without meaning,

And what for I continue living.

 

As I was still reminiscing alone,

Suddenly there was a ring on the phone,

It kept playing that lovely ringtone,

I felt weak even to pick up the phone,

But listening to it, it made my sadness gone.

 

I became worried instead and rushed to the hospital,

There she was lying down pale and feeble,

The doctor diagnosed she was having cancer,

And there was a letter written by her,

When I read, I began to cry crocodile tears.

 

In her letter was her apology,

She didn’t meant to cheat on me,

Because the disease was discovered already,

She didn’t want to make me unhappy,

That’s why she kept her secret from me.

 

 

Six months already since the winter,

I was standing with a bunch of flower,

Remembering the spring we had together,

And the happiness we had in summer,

All the memories were unforgettable.

 

What they said was so true,

A long winter in me made me so blue,

Being lonely and sad, never felt so cool,

Recalling her face so beautiful,

To wait or to carry on, it made me like a fool.

 

They said love is a sacrifice to person you care,

And to become honest that’s everyone should prepare,

But why did she sacrifice herself, I was the last to be shared,

And I only realized when she was the last that I stared,

Only making me think that I was not supposed to be there.
