Heartaches -- A Sad Poem

     I finished the first five verses within two hours.  Then for wanting to make a positive ending, got stucked on the first line on the 6th verse.  I stopped and went back to it 15 minutes ago.  (The time is 10:24 PM now, March 06, 2011)

     So here it is, another figment from my clouded imagination.  To those who are suspecting that I'm going through something, I can neither confirm nor deny that.  You can only speculate. Bwahahaha!

     Have a great day!  I hope someone can relate to this humble piece of work.  Take care!


Heartaches...
How can love bring too much pain
When it's supposed to be a bliss
Why is it a hollowed life
An agony worse than death

Each time I close my eyes
I see just mem'ries of you
Then my weary heart just cries
How can love be so untrue

The world is vivid with life
But all I see are hues of gray
Every soul is full of hope
Still I'm lost in disarray

Just move on, I tell myself
Put a cogent happy face
Force a smile or sound a laugh
Hide the hurt thru all the haze

Dear fate, please, I beg of you
Lead my heart to someone's soul
Who'll look at me with eyes of love
And bring me pain no more

To Him I pray, heal my heart
Mend my broken self, make me whole
So I can be a worthy man
When the right one's at my door

Post Script:  This blog is still about looks.  Whatever season of life we go through, we need to have a look.  So go be sad, be happy or whatever, and choose your wardrobe appropriately.  Sometimes, it's how we carry ourselves that helps us cope.  *wink*

'til my heart beats again
I'll be waiting 'til the very end.
Not sure, when the right one comes
But better prepare myself to love and be loved again.


So sad... thanks for inviting me again on your blog. Happy Monday ^_^

hello CJ,

Nice one you got here again. Whew! Whatever whirlwind of emotion can do to an inspired poet. :))

I like these parts here in your epilogue:

To those who are suspecting that I'm going through something, I can neither confirm nor deny that. You can only speculate. Bwahahaha! << Then I speculate. Bwahahaha (2x)!

I hope someone can relate to this humble piece of work. << Everyone can relate to it. You have just become the spokesperson for the romantics--hopeless and otherwise. Hehehe.

Finally, it's an excellent poem that can only come from a bleeding but hoping heart. Again, I belong to the category of those who speculate. Hahaha. Confirmation or denial need not be granted.

To Him I pray, heal my heart
Mend my broken self and soul
So I can be a worthy man
When the right one's at my door. << When the right one is given to you, everything else falls into place--time, chances, feelings, readiness and even forever. You're being made ready for her as she is also being made ready for you.

What a wonderful expreince it would be for us, followers of your blog, to witness an unfolding of the two souls meeting at a perfect time and with perfect intentions for one another. Then we would all be awaiting for more beautiful and inspiring poems from you. :))

You're a good person. The one meant for you is also being made good for you. In the mean time, make us happy by posting more interesting and creative works from you. Kudos!

Heyyy!

ARIO ACHDA (1) - thanks ario! You're such a sweet soul, a sweet friend. I'm glad to have found a friend in you. I know where to find you!

Bino (2) - thanks Bino!

Gelovsky (3) - thanks for dropping by, im actually on my way to yours. It's not totally sad, there's a hint of hope at the end... a little bit of hope is still a good thing, right? ☺

thought_folly (4) - Hey madam! Thank you for reading my posts and making sure that I feel inspired enough to put up another one.

Many things:

1) "You're a good person. The one meant for you is also being made good for you." ► Thank you, that meant a lot. Thank you for believing that I am still worthy of someone. ☺

2) "Then I speculate." ► Wahaha! You never fail to make me laugh...

3) "an unfolding of the two souls meeting at a perfect time and with perfect intentions for one another..." ► Beautifully written, just like in the movies huh? But that would be such a wonderful thing to think of and dream about. For the meantime, let me write more poems. LOL!

it's_me (5) - Thank you for the kind words.

musicman (6) - Thanks BesButch! Of course there is someone, and hey, that someone is knocking at your door! Hehe!

Thank you guys for the comments! Have a blessed day!

Hey, CJ, I can't help but also comment on your comments. Hehehe. Here they go:

(1) Thank you for reading my posts and making sure that I feel inspired enough to put up another one. << Not to appreciate such a talent is a wasted opportunity to spread aesthetics.

(2) Thank you, that meant a lot. Thank you for believing that I am still worthy of someone. ☺ << Of course you are! Not just of someone but a lot of them actually--so you got plenty to choose from. ☺ (ooops, borrowing your icon. hehe) and FYI: on you deserving of that someone? That's not a speculation. Hush...

(3) For the meantime, let me write more poems. LOL! << confetti and some more. :))

just dropping by. I rarely comment but I've been following your blog since I'm not sure when. You're actually on my blogroll.

Anyway, id like to say something about your poem. It's truly heartfelt, indeed profound, and for someone like me who have never really been in love, it kind gave me an impression that love can destroy you, if not kill you. But my mom said, and I always have this in mind, that Love is not a feeling or emotion, it's a state of mind. So if it gives you pain, agony, and sorrow, perhaps it's not love, you have to think again. :D

Ceedee said...

It was a nice poem and I can feel the "pain" and the "longing". And if ever you are really going through a tough time right now, then you are bless because after this, you'll finally meet happiness. God bless.

Hi, been a long time since I last comment here. Anyway I like the poem, I kinda relate my very first time I heart broken, was bloody and lifeless.But came the realization after a month that life's like that, I even wrote a poem too because I needed an outlet to pour out the pain.But thank God I have overcome that ordeal.:-) tinatawanan ko na lang pag naalala ko. hay life.
