Tina Dang Poems

Do you feel the same?
I find myself calling out your name.
Even though, we're not together anymore.
In my heart you're the only one I still adore.
...

Ever since you wanted a change,
Everything has gotten strange.
Of course I still do feel the same way,
But i can't stand the games you play.
...

I'm someone's daughter.
Who just doesn't know her father.
If you are wondering about me, I grew up just fine.
But I can't stop thinking about why you had left me behind.
...

Waiting in silence for my very first kiss.
Worried myself to the point, where I wonder what if I miss?
What will come of this?
Nothing but happy bliss?
...

I’ve been stabbed, I feel like I’ve died a thousand deaths.
Attempting to hang on for my dear life, gasping for every breath.
Struggling to stay alive.
As I pull out all these knives.
...

I believe everyone we meet in life is an actor.
We pretend really well, to over come life's obstacles and other fear factors.

Most of the time we pretend to be someone else.
...

I can't stop thinking about you you're everywhere it seems.
I can't get you off my mind or out of my dreams.
How can I feel something for someone that I don't even know?
As much as I like you, I'm too shy to let my affection show.
...

You are someone very special to me.
When I look at you everyday, I see a different kind of beauty.
I know it would mean more coming from your man.
But for what it's worth, I’ll be supportive of what you do, be your #1 fan.
...

You rescued me from my distress,
Found me abandoned, left alone in a mess.
I was deeply depressed,
Locked up inside surrounded by darkness.
...

Why should I care what society thinks of me?
Don't hate me because I have a mind of my own and choose to act differently.

The least peolple should worry about ever is acceptance.
