Whys (A Collection)

Nonsense

The sun shines and the wind blows
The flowers bloom and the grasses brush
These images I keep on my mind
Just like how they remind
Of you and your love when it was still fresh
Without the brokenness that you left.

The flowers love the sun though it scorches her,
The leaves love the rain though it pounded on her;
Maybe that's just how love is--
Nurturing, loving and destructive and killing.

The roses by my fingers are soft as silk
But it scratches like a fox, it claws like a lion.
They made me feel gentle and soft
But they were silently murdering me.

I lie and think of how you left unnoticed,
How you deserted me without hesitation,
Why you gave up on me in grave situation,
Why you said you loved me, but it was only temporary.

I, as an idiot, took up your limbs
Because you were helpless as you seemed.
But you showed that you were more than capable
You were the destruction I protected us from.

You were certain that this love will remain
Through tears, sorrows and pain.
It was you who kept this fire alive
I was always damp, I know the fault was mine.

You were so certain that this love
True as the daisies that blooms at the sunlight
But actually it was a nightlock
The more you have it the less you live.

You were so certain that we would stay afloat,
But why when the thunders clapped
The waves have rolled
You let go of the sail
You let this die in vain.

We were so certain about us
That when time passes
We would be there
How come right now, you aren't here.

We were so certain
That love is what binds us
But sometimes love is not enough
When the road have no tracks.

You showed me how love can give life
Bring meaning
Give inspiration, motivation.
But you also showed me how love
Can kill, murder, cause suicide.
Because it only takes a heartbeat
To die inside.

When you left,
I thought I died.
