Of mixed emotions

by MDM Matthew - Libra

I float downstream
on a boat of woven emotions,
going with the tide of hopelessness.
I force a smile... a sun baked lie.

With laughter and song I mask myself.
Unrelenting, how I wish I'd die!
A stolen kiss from thine eyes embrace,
how I wish I could readliy smile...

I lie down on broken bones of hope,
emotion of darkness doth sorrow betroth.
I look upon thee with gladness long gone,
I finally... finally break down and cry...

Reason for writing:

    "...sa akin pagtangap ng aking pag ka bigo..."
                               - bahistagitarista
When I finally accpeted the fact that at this point in time, the love I have so yearned, hoped and prayed for was not meant to be. It was the only time I was moved to tears even after learning about this a few months back.
