How Long Will It Takes Poem by Xiandara Magbanua

How long will it takes
going north to south isles,
bargaining by land or by sails,
spending hours or days,
bringing coats or tees,
Tell me, how long will it takes?

How long will it takes,
when I take a step from here to you,
taking my hand as if a cue,
to enter your heart,
is the most convincing part,
as of why love untold,
is just a story to behold.
Admiring the warmth of the hue,
I finally found heaven's innocent clue,
that withering plant is dying to ask for one thing,
how long will she keeps on enduring,
from a painful pot of sorrowful ending?
how long will it takes?

How long will it takes
For the wind to blow my message to your ears,
for the breeze to succumb you to my embrace,
or for the sun to shower you my blissful grace?
Would it take forever,
to enjoy our happy ever after?
Answer me, how long will takes?

Forgiving comes after acceptance,
You're my high dose of tolerance,
a limited edition maintenance,
To you I am nothing,
but a simple minded annoyance.
And when you've got a chance,
leaving me is what you'll take in an instance.
That, my hurtful soul keeps asking,
how long will it takes?

How long will it takes
Moving on from the past
Leaving me an empty feeling so vast
I'm looking for an effective cure that'll act fast
And would make this feeling end to last
Bearing it, how long will it takes?

Will the end define my beginning?
Scratch from nothing,
but of an elusive dreaming,
of a young girl tired of empty feeling.
Merely cause by a foolish decision,
turning your back without a pang of hesitation,
leaving without looking at my direction,
is just the end of my doleful imagination.
