Much to my dislike, I haven’t written anything in what feels like ages. I’m rusty and unsure if I still have the spark. Time hasn’t been nice to me when it comes to writing. I wish words would just flow right from my heart and into my fingertips again just like they used to. Maybe I’ve been too preoccupied and busy or maybe I just lack the inspiration I used to have back then.

When I was young, I never thought I would ever be able to write. I avoided it as much as possible. I tried my hand at it a few times in elementary school but I never seemed to be as good as the others were. It wasn’t until I gave it another go late in high school before I understood why.

Short stuff – I was better at writing short stuff. I wrote best when I put things in the simplest way for other people to understand. I found my niche early on as we took our classes and learned to write different things. I wrote and wrote and wrote (among various other things) for three years. I learned a lot about myself and others too during that time.

True, gone are the days of magic and love I’ve spent in this home, but one thing is for sure. The magic and love will stay and go on for an even longer time. Perhaps, I can relive it.

GAME OVER

CHAMPION

Mea Culpa

I’ll tell you.

I’m not sorry.

I should be.

And I know that.

So that the mind will be clear,

no cause for pain or fear.

So that the heart can be free,

for you are no longer with me.

Because in this dream,

You are not my reality.

But in this reality,

I am not just your dream.

So I will end this game we play,

because I know I cannot stay

So you wouldn’t be the one to pay

the price of something I thought I’ll never say.

I told you.

I’m sorry.

I think I shouldn’t have.

I knew it.

First Sight

I caught you wandering into my zone

Out of astonishment, my world froze

A few seconds seemed like an eternity

But it was one I’d want to spend in your company

Light

When you came into my life

Everything seemed a bit brighter

I thought that it would be the beginning of a happy song

But fate simply loves proving me wrong

The End

I knew it, what I had to do

Our happiness, to remain as memories

He knew this too, I can tell

With a heavy heart, I bid him farewell

Truth

I, too, have something to admit

That for quite some time

I have admired you

“I love you, too”

Triumph for Two

The battle of hearts comes to an end

But the war of love wages on

Now dawns a new age of gold

With a thousand new stories to be told
