Time to Time...
Time is a funny thing, isn’t it? I am a firm believer
that everything comes to you at the right time and I think that is the only
thing that keeps my head held up high and my heart safe. If I never knew about
this ‘right time’, I never would have understood why some events took place in
my life, why things that broke my heart also gave me a nudge that I needed to
move forward. I read so many quotes about how time heals everything. I think
that’s not true. In a sense? Yes. I think as time passes, many things in your
life lead you to be the stronger person with a tough heart that has its doors
locked and windows slightly opened. As time passes, everything just makes sense
and even though, it doesn’t end the pain, it sure does help you to numb it.
The following poem is called ‘Time to Time’. It’s
about how I, even though I know I shouldn’t, still think about him. like he’s a
place I can’t escape, a book that doesn’t end or a poem that is so beautifully
complex that I have reread it over again a million times, just to understand
the meaning. The thing is, I don’t regret it. I like to have him in my mind
every time and to look for his face in the crowd, I like to be the only who
loves him where he has no idea of it. It hurts to know that he can’t read my
eyes, everything that they are trying to say. But as time passed, I learned to
live with it, time numbed the hurt, the heartache of someone who is not loved
back by the person they adore the most. I still have hopes of calling him mine
but I’m not hanging onto that thin thread that was dangling over the edge. My
heart is back to its senses, it's back in its safe place.
I just hope he understands that only for
him, I kept the windows slightly open, I hope he knows even though I am tired
of showing too many signs, his smile still makes my heart feel golden…
Time
to Time
Time
to time I think about the reasons
Why
I always hoped and still do…
For
your heart to let me in
And
to give me a chance of loving you.
Time
to time I pray
Keeping
you in my mind,
Wishing
you lots of happiness
And
wishing our stars to align.
Time
to time I think of us
And
the things that tell me to let you go,
The
doubts of what-ifs
Still
haunt me, down to my soul.
Time
to time I thank myself
For
not listening to my hearts desires,
For
it expected the love from you
That’s
hidden somewhere, wrapped inside the barbed wire.
