June FeirCruz Poems

I have reconciled the thought that our paths will never cross again
All the pain from a lifetime ago I thought would have dissipated
I turned my life upside down to be with you
I trusted you, and you let me down.
...

Am I to be blamed for that moment in time?
Did I underestimate you?
Was I careless with you?
The sin of my youth, my disgrace.
...

I played all my cards
I took the chance
Of being wanted by you
...

Love will always be a game
Men want to hunt
Women have to be hunted
If you give in too soon
...

'Never again, would I want to feel the hurt
Of feeling so jaded and so lost' I heard you say
I see such fear and honesty in your eyes
I know you have your own share of dissolution
...

I have always been an open book to you
I allowed you to read me so that you may know me.
I dedicated each chapter of my life for your mind and heart
I gave you footnotes for every detail of my life.
...

(as inspired by Dr. Subhendo Kar of India in one of his comments. Thank you, Dr. Kar)

'Love and hate two sides of a coin'
'Like two souls juxtaposed'
...

Good night, my love whereever you are
Whoseever arms enfold you, may you find peace.
May you rest in a soft pillow that cradles your head
May you hold her close to you till the morning sun.
...

As I sit alone in this cold lonely night
I feel as though my heart has broken
I am prepared to pick up the million shattered pieces
Just to see your face again.
...

I hope that you realize your confessions are a burden to me
Much as I love you like a brother, your words are corrupting me
I don't really know what possesses you to unburden yourself to me
Is 'sister confessor' tattoed in my forehead for everyone to see
