ITUTULA NA LANG (Poetry Compilation)

In An Instant

#INL

-unedited-

~~~

Walkin' down on a busy hallway,
Hesitating if I'm going to walk through or the other way
All faces are definitely familiar,
But yours seems peculiar

Behind those bending flesh of yours in a concrete block,
Are frames that holds formality,
But expressions hide frailty,
Like a glass that could break much more easily

Emotions rush through my throat,
I just waved it away and resumed to my route

Time stretched from days to months,
Just seeing you passing by or from a far,
Out of the blue,
Fate begins to mingle and take part

During that chilling wind of October,
In one of the darkest skies showered with amusing stars,
And all of the blinding streetlights from a distance,
Our little chitchat seems indulging the ambiance

Nothing is constant, I believe
After, we stayed in a box for a moment
Enjoying every single minute of talking,
Exchanging of greetings,
The things about our similarities and contrariety

Time was all spent electronically,
Even confessions were brought instantly
Not too long, just a couple of days and so
I don't know what happened,
But fate played again,
And made those vague emotions of mine fade away

Thinking about it makes me unease
Only if I didn't spit it out,
Maybe things would not flow like what it is now
Words are sometimes deceitful,
For mouths are also unmindful
Throwing utters without second thought,
And made me regret after I planted the fault

Honestly, it's not about the fact that I barely know you,
It's the thought that I may hurt you,
In this no perfect occasion,
In this very moment that fantasies are mostly infatuation

People would easily fall into shipping us,
Sorry, I'm tired of hearing such,
My mind is close, no telltales are welcome

I think end is the story of us,
Damage has been done, I assumed
Though, words unfinished like my poems
Better if I'll leave it that way
Just like every edge of paragraphs always comes a proper period.
I'm sorry.
