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.
