No matter where I start,
I always end up here,
In this same old place,
Because each time I see you here,
You bring a smile on my face..

All those hate words,
All the times you ghosted me,
The pain and hurt you caused me,
The wounds have healed,
The scar still remains,
Yet each time I see you,
You bring a smile on my face..

Its hard to change,
One's looks, personality or ways,
But its harder to change one's heart,
You make my heart dance with grace,
Crazy as it may seem,
But its true that even now,
You bring a smile on my face..

Same excitement, same nervousness,
Words not forming,
2 years long crush,
And I am still in this useless chase,
What for?
Just for the smile you bring on my face.

Your poems really touch my heart Jasmine. My girlfriend left me a few months ago. I still think about her every day. My heart is still heavy and I feel like crying a lot.I know its not easy to be in love with someone who does not feel the same way about you as you do them. I don't know if the grief ever goes away...but I am watching my relationship with the grief changing into compassion for others that I would never have had ...if it were not for the catastrophe...and that compassion is priceless... It lets us connect with a larger body of humanity...

I really think your poems are a great way to process your grief into compassion rather than resentment..you really inspire me...some people don't understand unless they have grown from the grief. I hope you keep writing and look forward to seeing how this mud of grief will one day blossom into a breathtaking lotus.

Thank you for your kind words. I will be here till April 8th so I will write till then smile2
I donno about others but for me, its really hard to be here and see him and not been able to talk to him and pretend it doesn't matter. So I guess might as well leave.

And I know the popular saying...plenty of fish in the sea..but I guess not every fish is a goldfish lol

Yes I had previous account which I deactivated and removed the details which is why it is showing as unknown. The site doesn't let me login and activate unless I use the same email account. Unfortunately I don't have associated email anymore.So I had to open a new account.
Yup you are right, for two years now. That's why have to leave. smile2
