Feels Like October Again
May 11, 2015My eyes locked on yours
On one October day
I always try to ask myself
How you ended up making me feel this way364 days after that October
You came to open the lock
That, I didn't want to happen
But it wasn't you who was mockedSummer of the next year
I nonchalantly got away from you
Not because of hatred
But the need to be free, tooThe distance was unimaginable
But I didn't care
I was doing great
But to meet you, I couldn't dareHowever, four months before October
You magically appeared
I was beyond appalled
But I felt like I had to adhereWe actually exchanged conversations
And felt like a day from 450 before
Almost rebelliously, I felt something
And realization hit me to the coreWhat can I do,
To prevent what makes me happy?
You bring me down to despised depths
But you also bring out the best of meI may loathe myself for this
And I'm bringing myself to the lion's den
But maybe dead love can be alive once more
Because it feels like October againㅡ
NOTE: Please know that not all that I write here is true to life. Not everything that I write is about me. So if you judge me for writing too much about love, know first that I'm comfortable with this genre and I like crafting art with words that fit best for romance. Pero na-feel ko talaga ang poem na 'to. Wala lang hahaha.
