Unspoken

I've been watching and reading hugot stuff lately. Poems, essays, films, and Juan Miguel Severo performances. I've known him even before he came into the TV series, On the Wings of Love, but I don't know why I got hooked with his works just recently. Because of that, I feel inspired to do a piece same as the ones which are being performed in Spoken Poetry events though I don't know if I could actually label them as "spoken word" because I don't have the self-esteem to perform it in front of a crowd. So instead, I will be doing this poetry series entitled, "Unspoken." 

I will be posting the first one in a few. I hope that I can share the feels to each one of you who gets to read it. :)

A Summer's Tragedy

Swimming in the ocean of thoughts
Putting it into poetry
A summer I couldn't forget
Drowning in your memories

Walking on the shore hand in hand
Enjoying the view of the sea and the sky
Creating fancy castles in the sand
We let the time slowly pass by

The weather's gentle and fine
The free birds flying in a flock
But the sun began to hide behind the clouds
Then the day turned into black

The waves splashed on the shore
The castles we made were torn down
The rain fell and the thunder roared
It was indeed a frightening sound

We didn't expect it would be a bad day
We should have made a different plan
Nobody knew it would end up that way
But what could we do if it's already done?


First

You've been wandering my dreams lately
And it makes me wonder why
It's been years without communication
Let alone a single goodbye

We were young and silly then
All we think of is temporary
But despite knowing less, we created more --
Something magical and extraordinary

We talk and laugh, walk and run
And do things together
We get lost in our reality
But we enjoy the company of each other

You were there to protect me
To give support and love
How I wish it did not end
But circumstances took away something that I have

We drifted away little by little
Until we fell apart
It doesn't hurt much before
But now, it breaks my heart

It's cruel that fate let us meet
In a time and place that's just not right
But there's a hope in me
That the stars will align again for us at sight
