It's Weird

It's weird
how I turn back my head
to take another look at that guy in the crowd
coz for a wild moment,
I thought it was you.

It's weird
how I keep checking the carplate number
of the brown car that whizzed by
because you drive the same car too.

It's weird
how I go to grocery shop
and I suddenly miss the times
we did that together.
Silly, we began in sucha place too, didn't we?

It's weird
how the memories come flooding in
at inopportune moments
sometimes I smile to myself when I think of them
sometimes I cry
for the lost time of the next few years.

It's weird
how sometimes I'm excited at this new adventure
how sometimes I wish desperately,
you were going with me
so that we could experience it in all its entirety together
without the need for me to describe it to you.

It's weird
how time seems to grow wings
when I am with you
doing nothing absolutely at all
oh, how happy times fly.

It's weird
how the future seems so uncertain
able to tip at the slightest weight
but we have the faith to fight for it
to build one together.

It's weird
how I tell myself
I'm getting better, a little bit stronger
and so easy it all falls,
crumbles to naught
when I see you again.

It's just weird...
life without you.


PS: I know I haven't been posting my poetry here for a long long time. Well, I was just out of inspiration. So this blog will just remain a place for the occasional poem. You can add it to your RSS feed so that you won't need to keep checking back k? ;)

Hope you enjoyed this one!
