Rizza F. Awayan Poems

I was begging the stars one night
Talking to them as if they’ll hear me right
Wonder if they might talk back at me
I just keep my talking freely
...

They will no longer hear me laugh
‘Cause I have had more than enough
I live each day as a punishment
Will not hesitate to jump into banishment
...

The wind’s chilling outside
Its gustiness echoed the hallway soothing inside
Here I am again staring so bare
Heavenly bodies at night, my guardians so dear
...

I am puzzled right now
Do I have to go on?
With this stupid feelings
I guess not, my dear
...

The message was clear
Everything was a hoax, I can't bear
Abruptly I escaped the crowd
Don't wanna hear it aloud
...

I manage my life to be good
To be like everybody else in this world
To live a normal life
And yet everything is in strife
...

Recently my world was shocked
A little bit rocked
By this angel who came unnoticed
Springing like a flower, made me feel unease
...

I will leave my heart with no tenderness
For it will no longer beats for loveliness
Demanding to overcome the excruciating pain is my desire
Triumphant maybe in the end, burning like fire
...

Seeing them once more reminds me of something
Days past since I was with them talking
Even if they won't speak to me back, but just staring
That would be alright, for me it's quite relaxing
...

The clock is ticking slowly
I could hear the sounds smoothly
It says it’s 2: 26 in the morning, quite early
Still am wide awake thinking of you naturally
...
