(A poem for a crush)
As I linger into the hallway of darkness and chaos
I saw an unstoppable light glowed from afar
Like a shimmering diamond
I went near, tried to touch it, but I couldn't
So I just stared at you.
As the light came slowly bursting out
It brought a sudden warmth inside me
I couldn't describe the feeling it gave me
But I am sure it felt good
So I stared more at you.
As it exploded loudly into the skies
It wakened my heart entangled with hatred
As it split up into tidbits
My blood came rushing in excitement
Anticipating the surprise you would show me
A smile came to my face
A smile like the first time I had when I was a kid.
As your lights slowly travelled
Like a rocket shooting in the sky
How you make my eyes go fixated steadily
On your gentle mesmerizing movement
I didn't think in the first place that there was you…
As your lights splattered above
It was like a rain of shimmering lights
Making trees visible in the park
The lake reflected your irresistible beauty.
I didn't feel alone anymore
I felt safe, safe in the darkness
As your light rained in the vast skies
Slowly dripping down like a paint splattered on the wall
I wanted to hold it, feel it in my hands
So I reached for you, but I couldn't.
As you gradually vanished
Like a glowing firefly in the darkness
I felt frightened…
That you will never come back
I don't want to be alone again.
I wish you'd be coming back soon.
And when you came back
Please hold me…hold me
We'll dance in the skies together
And I'll vanish together with you
