update!

she sat under the sycamore tree, eyes dazed , deep in thought.
remembering the promise they made, to meet back at this tree after 2 years after he finished college. it had been 5.
she returned to the tree each day, in case he was late.

she constantly hoped that he would return to her someday.
constantly.
she thought of him.

A rustle of leaves. A person's echoing footsteps.

Her heart skipped a beat. could it really be? her efforts had really not been for nothing? was it him?

...

no one. her imagination, perhaps.
voice quivering, she sang " though you're still with me.. i've been alone all along.."

total and absolute crushing disappointment.

he was never coming back.
alot could happen in 3 years.
silently she hoped he was happy.
that was all she could ever ask for.
all she could ever want.

she hoped that if she could not bring him happiness
he could move on and find someone who could.
she would not selflessly keep him by her side

she stood up.
crushing her paper dreams.
and walked away.

hehhs. just a random poem i composed while feeling emo.

No Regrets.
The irony.
Of a girl dying in an accident
just before she could profess her undying love
to the one of her desires.
Of the same girl
watching, teary-eyed,
as her one true love goes on with life.
marrying his beautiful wife.
having the life she never had
the one she'll never have
Is heaven truly heaven?
if all you can do
is sit back and watch others
live out the dream you never had
the one that got away
your last unfulfilled regret.
now you stand
at the crossroads
with a choice to make
between what your heart tells you to do and what is the easiest
they say that before you die
your life flashes infront of you
one last time
make it worthwhile
make no regrets.
