Because I Love You

Because I Love You,
   I cover my ears to what people say
   I close my eyes so I can't see what's right
   I don't want to see tears fall down your eyes
   I don't want to cause even a little pain in your heart

Because I Love You,
   I don't care whatever differences we have
   I even ignore the fact there's already someone you loved
   I have learned to patiently wait & sacrifice
   I have learned to accept what the world cant

Because I Love You,
   I always wanted to be enclosed in your sweet embrace
   I can't resist in your romantic kisses
   I tried to find ways for us to be together
   I truly cherished every moment we share

Because I Love You,
  Forever, I will hold on through...

I wrote this poem eight years ago as a valentine gift for a very
special person. I thought I could hold on forever but sometimes
loving someone can mean letting go...

Could it be?

Could it be you
     the one Ive been waiting for so long

Could it be true
     thoughts of you made me smile

Could it be love
     when I long for you so much

Could it be destiny
     when we have to be apart for me to realized

In a different world, in another time
     you and me, could it be?

The greatest irony of love is loving the right person at the wrong time.

Hopes

I hope that when I feel sad
I can lessen the loneliness
you're feeling...

I hope that when I cry
my tears can wash all the pain
you're having...

I hope that when I'm hurting
it means your broken heart
is slowly mending...

I hope that when I stay all night thinking
you'll sleep away
sweetly dreaming...

I hope that when I keep on wishing
your star is there
brightly shining...

--------------------------------------------------------------
Unknowingly, in the process of comforting someone
we are creating our own pain...

Wishes for you

I wish you
     no more sad looks nor tears in you eyes 
          but a genuine smile, a happy life...

I wish you
     no more worries, frustrations nor doubts 
          but a sound sleep, a peace of mind...

I wish you
     no more heartbreaks and pains 
          but a stronger heart, full of love...

I wish you
    no more mourning days and lonely nights 
          but so much joy for the years to come...

A special birthday poem for a friend.

Irony

As much as I wanted
not to think of you
my heart longs so much for you...

As I tried so hard
to erase those memories,
every moment keeps flashing back to me...

As I prayed deeply
for this feeling to just fade away
my love for you grows more each day...

As I force myself to believe
that you are not meant for me
I dream that someday you will love me...
