Literary: Opposite Directions

I had a rough childhood
Grew up in negativity
Never believed I would be happy
That is, until I met you

I had a rough childhood

Grew up in a chaotic household

Stopped believing in love

Ever since my parents broke up

When I first met you
I really didn’t know what to do
We both shared the same ideal
It was just too good to be real

When I first saw you

I felt a foreign feeling

And like an invader in my territory

I prevented it from taking over me

I love the way you make me feel
I’m actually happy, so surreal
Like life’s worth a shot
Like anything is possible and whatnot

Like going underwater

I saw new horizons and felt differently

But I was frightened

Of drowning and suffocating

I’ll help you breathe

Don’t be scared of what’s underneath
I’ll help you get through this
I won’t let you fall into the abyss

Upon seeing broken souls and unmended hearts

I was frightened yet curious

Then I wondered what would happen

If I gave it a try

Unfortunately love is a mystery

One that is so hard to unravel

Like a present given to you

Unknown yet exciting to open

Just another uncertainty
Don’t know what this will end up to be
Yet I will take the chance even though risky
For us to be together, you and me

The day that I woke up

Feeling that I lost something

Was also the day I told myself

Perhaps it was worth a try

Welcome
