Hoping for Nothing

If you only knew
What you’ll put me through,
Would you have done things dif’rently?
Would you run and hide,
Or cast me aside?
Would you ignore me completely?

It is kind of weird
That I’ve always feared
That you’ll go away forever.
I’m afraid to show
How I love you so.
Scared of what will happen after.

I finally tried
To say what’s inside,
To confess my feelings before.
That time you told me
That this cannot be.
You love me as a friend, not more.

Didn’t go as planned,
But I understand
Why we couldn’t be together.
Even though this heart
Has been torn apart,
I long for you more than ever.

Forgive me if I
Can’t let this love die.
Guess I’ll stay this way forever.
Crazy, you may say.
It’s the only way
I can pull myself together.

Surprise, surprise!

Oh my, what is this?
The air in Paris

Inspires me to write
Verses left and right.

Going to hysterics,
Screw the mathematics!

I’ll just while away the time
Maybe thinking of a rhyme,

Until I find…
Bah, never mind.

Just think of this as practice,
Lest my English go amiss.

Time Leap

I wish I could do
a time leap,
To go back to where it all began,
To see whether this moment
can be undone,
To find out what happens
if I chose the other path.

I wish I could do
a time leap,
To go forward, see what will happen,
To figure out if I
chose the right path,
To skip all the bad things
that are happening to me.

But alas,
I’m stuck in the present.
