June FeirCruz Poems

I dared to dream of you
In my darkest hour
In my time of self doubt and pain
I dared to dream of you
...

Sad to say
You are just a cat's cradle to me
Just something to do
So I woudn't be so lonely
...

For years I have been silent
I hold a beautiful secret you and I share
For years I have no expectations from you
Not your love, not your hand to hold unto
...

I didn't know what was lacking in my life, till I found you
You broke into my time and space and rescued me from my pain.
I didn't know what love is, till you showed me the way
I no longer dwell in solitary confinement and you freed me from all my fears.
...

Tender moments that stemmed from a kiss
Though uncertain of the future all this may bring
I allowed myself to give you all the love that my heart can muster
And devotion that is felt from the deepest recessess of my soul.
...

I kissed a virtual stranger in real life
And my life has ended as I know it.
My life has been a roller coaster of sorts
Ups and downs and ups in dizzying speed
...

He didn't choose you
You chose him.
He didn't stand a chance -you latched on to him.
He was way too young
...

How many times did we say goodbye to each other?
How many times did we say such hurtful words?
How many times did you distrust me and my ways?
Countless days and nights, I weep endlessly.
...

Someone told me I should be used to it by now:
Being ogled at and objectified
The curse of being a HOT FILIPINA WOMAN
The curse of being an attractive woman.
...

You distrust everything I say to you
None of my sincere words reaches your heart
You see my lips move, but you hear nothing of what I have to say
My attempts to reach you, fall into deaf ears
...
