Along With The Ebbing Tide Poem by Roldan Escanan Go

You came so fast and went away
just as swiftly as the waves head off after kissing the shore
I cried and hoped that when the light dies out
I will find someone to guide me along the way.
My plight brought me to the point of nothingness
And after losing you I don’t seem to know now
how to grab the things that matter most
and to let go those that are not meant to last.
I wanted to know you are not going through without difficulty
That at least you’ll realize how hard life can be without me too
But you seem happy now and it hurts how easily you have set aside
Our time, our love, our promises and all that we have.
Those beautiful memories I have had with you
Are the only ones now I kept holding on to
Believing that in all of the dreams I make every night
I will have you briefly pleading me to stop weeping and go on with life.
I wanted time to travel slow but it flutters so fast
And as always, I am left downhearted with my broken aspiration
That at least for once I will see you missing some parts of me
So that along with the ebbing tide, I can now let you go freely.
