How Would You Know

How would you know when you like someone?

Is it when you can't stop thinking about them?

Or when you feel giddy upon nothing all of a sudden?

Or when you want to throw daggers to the “other” beside him?

It's a mystery...

How I know I like someone

is hidden behind the sands of time.

It’s a feeling…

My name on his lips,

Makes my heart run in circles every while.

It’s tireless…

Try hard but can’t give a rest,

I dream of him even when I’m fast asleep.

It’s breathless…

I didn’t just fall from a certain height,

instead to the deep waters, gasping for more air.

I wanna know…

How you name that feeling,

How you look at the streaks of your own heart breaking.

For when you like someone,

You got to feel it,

But not everyone accepts it.


Just like how I didn't.
