Hopeless-romantic

-By Sophia Cac


You've denied me once again.

This time, it isn't something that comes unexpected.

In this circled of fruitless love that I was chained,

In love, without much fight, I was arrested.

Can you blame me, this hopeless-romantic kid?

It was you who deceived me, making me believe you'd be the one to give aid...

I wasn't wrong, you tried at least, but that's what I've observed,

And maybe it was me that wronged you, knowing what you deserved.

Not me, the hopeless-romantic

You deserve the fairy tale stories, those types of love.

I'm neither princess nor the prince that sweep you off your feet; I'm more of an idiotic.

But that doesn't mean you could just throw away my love.

My heart, my trust, my hopes and dreams,

I watch those crumbled, shatters into pieces and be flushed in the drain.

Like I was nothing,

Maybe I am nothing.

You shut me out so quickly,

I could only smile at you nicely.

I expected this,

But why does it have to hurt like this?

If this means that being hopeless-romantic will continue to hurt,

By all means, let my heart learn.

No more movies,

No more of those slow-dancing grooves,

No more books to make me fancies

the love that could only be fiction.

I just got hit by realization

And it hurts,

Just as you wanted to be, I'd curt

The truth since it's better than the dirt

Of which you step upon on.

I will be hopeless-romantic no more.

I'd be just a girl who had been hurt and gone bitter.

And, if I may add, it seems better

Than to be blinded with love,

I'd put those fantasy away, in the closet they've been shoved.

I've learned my lesson,

I have enough of those lovely emotions.

Sorry sweet princess, you made me like this, you're the reason.


So, as expected, I had to decline

Your confession of 'missed love and affection',

And it's really pathetic

Seeing you hopeless-romantic
