Love Hurts - Bound by Love Broken by Fate
(Extracted from my Poem ‘The Train’ and made into Lyrics and a video.)
Mesmerised by the candy-coloured rainbow
Coy behind the fairy floss clouds
Through shimmering sunbeams, we gazed
My senses in overdrive
As memories surface
And hover back to
That one day
Boarding this very train
Squeals of joy
As cloudbursts unleashed rain
Chorus
But you left me
You took my heart and locked away the key
Squeezing into one seat
Wrists caressed and kissed
Floating to that intimate space
Sensual lips taste
Whispered promises
Sparking bright eyes
And blushing rosy face
Softly against my ear a hum
Our song
Fingers daring to trace
Burning paths
Through shredded threads
Faded jeans
Breathless on the high line
Us, giggling teens
Chorus
But you left me
You took my heart and locked away the key
Speeding through fields of wildflowers
Sparkling like diamonds with the fallen showers
The train hooted in joy
Through the rain splattered window amazed
Mesmerised by the candy-coloured rainbow
Coy behind the fairy floss clouds
Through shimmering sunbeams we gazed.
Chorus
But you left me
You took my heart and locked away the key
For once, I feel loved.
The feeling is weird to me.
Just a few months ago I thought love was stupid.
That it was impossible.
I thought my mind was not suited
I thought it was not tangible.
Such a foolish thing to think.
Of course my mind can comprehend love
But it could all go away in a blink,
to feel higher than clouds, to feel so above
To then just be put out,
Like a fire at a campsite.
Yes, the seeds of doubt
Start to plant with delight
Maybe,
I am not suited for such things.
I must be crazy!
To think I am worthy of something meant for the worldly kings.
Love this
Love that
Love her
Love him
Love these
Love those
Love.
I do not know.
I am not a dove…
I am so far below…
For once, I felt loved.
The feeling is weird to me.
Just a few moments ago I thought love wasn’t stupid.
That it wasn’t impossible.
I thought my mind was suited
I thought it was tangible.
Such a foolish thing to think.
One slow motion jagged tear
found me after you left me here.
Its wetness sits still upon my face
as I stare at absolutely no place.
What I do live and what I dream
and all sundries fitting in between,
now struggle in a frenzied dance
passing thru, in and out, this circumstance.
My brain is mush circling a clueless groove.
Surely, I need an enlightened next move.
Calm failed to enter when you shut the door,
and life as I knew it quit being anymore.
I simply cannot find my identity.
Maybe it left with you and my clarity.
I seek to ease a primal urge to shout
at frenzied thoughts dashing about.
Perhaps I knew years had grown weeds
while I prayed for fertilized love seeds.
Perhaps I knew time long held this bleed
while I prayed true love would succeed.
Perhaps my heart just died in your stampede.
( A Letter to My Beloved in Heaven)
You said "I'll be right back"
I nod and said okay
Unaware and unknown of the moment
You left me alone on life's pathway
I didn't knew it will be the last time
I see your angelic face
I never thought it will be the last time
I feel your cosy embrace
Still can't believe
My heart is in so grieve
Sun still rises from east
And darkness fall at night
But when tomorrow starts without you
Each day is not as bright
Never thought you will leave me this way
Without you each hour now seems a day
Your memories fill my eyes with tears
Without you in this crazy world my heart fears
Fears that how I will live rest of my life
Without you by my side
You were my strength
That carried me to another tomorrow
You were my hope
That replaced my everlasting sorrow
I'm completely broken from heart
I don't know what to do
My love it will never ever be the
Same world without you........
Through somber days with sleepless night,
Through howling winds with blistering bite
I saw the weary man wandering by,
a smile upon his face
Through lighting crashes and thunderous rain,
Through Winter's cold and Summer's pain
I saw the weary man wandering by,
a smile upon his face
Through the densest forest and thickest thorn,
With battered shoes and clothing torn
I saw the weary man wandering by
a smile upon his face
Why do you smile. weary man? as you meander by,
You travel through this arduous road, with a twinkle in your eye
Your journey seems so daunting, the mountains you must climb
But as you wander by, it seems you were smiling this whole time
The weary man glanced up at me, just noticing I was there,
His eyes danced cool with happiness, a warmth within his stare
His smile seemed much brighter now,
A rosiness in his cheek
He gave a glowing affecting grin, as he slowly began to speak
"It's Her Love that burns a flame, that forever keeps me warm"
"It's Her Love that lights the path, and guides me through the storm"
"It's Her Love that gently sings a song, for only me to hear"
"It's Her Love that gives me solace, freeing me from fear"
"It's Her Love within the Sunshine, her radiance sparks the dawn"
"It's Her Love that springs eternal and is never truly gone"
And so he wanders on...
I saw the weary man wandering by,
a smile upon his face
The surface of the sea calms after the storm
Revealing the wreckage.
I search for the perfect words
That will breathe life back into you, into us,
Resurrecting our love.
I fear they don’t exist.
How could any singular phrase or plea
Encompass and do justice to the complexity of who we are
And what we could have been.
Yet still, in desperation, a whisper escapes my lips.
Forced out into the open
By my last remnant of hope.
“Choose me, love me.”
Words so desperate and small,
But heavy laden with desire and pain.
Like me they are untethered and drifting
Without you as their destination.
A flare sent into the night
Surrounded by a blanket of darkness as far as the eye can see.
They slip away, fading into blackness once more.
What was this brief moment of clarity flashed before me
Lighting my world
Only to leave me yet again surrendered to the shadows?
No help is coming.
The horizon holds no sign of hope.
I thought the death of us
Could be swallowed up in the victory of His promises.
Rescued.
But what is life without death?
How can we know joy without passing through sorrow?
Life and death are one
Even as the river and the ocean.
As are you and I.
So I let our love sink into this watery grave,
Submitting to the current pulling us under.
Like so many treasures and lives claimed before ours,
So now is our love,
Lost at sea.
I fell in love with someone who I can never be with
Deep down underneath my heart lies with myths
I just want someone to hold
Not wondering if they'll ever come home
I made a mistake; thinking ahead,
I usually stay between the lines,
Loving what I have, rather than being led,
Avoiding all confusion and signs,
But now I have an abandoned notebook in my hand,
No lines written, only regret in command.
I made a mistake; being attached too fast;
Now I'm left with sleepless nights,
And a heart tattered in cast,
My eyes didn't always burn with those lights,
As I gazed upon the abandoned notebook in my hand,
No lines spoken, no space given to understand.
I made a mistake; creeping ahead of the line,
A crossing I didn't mean to cross,
A line disrupting what should've been mine,
Now I was only left with sorrow and loss,
As I opened the abandoned notebook in my hand,
No lines read, ruining everything that was planned.
I made a mistake; speaking,
Now I'm scared of being what I was,
Why my head won't stop it's shrieking?
Constantly ringing, "You ain't nothin' but a lost cause"
As I wrote in the abandoned notebook in my hand,
A line made, after being banned.
I made a mistake; thinking of her all the time,
Now my mind is corroding, as she departs,
Am I a prisoner, being punished for my crime?
Now even a smile, shatters me in several parts.
As I closed the abandoned notebook in my hand,
I cannot leave it unwritten, even if I've lost my stand.
I will paint my heart in the notebook, as I hand her,
The abandoned notebook in my hand.
Hector Solomone Moone
the thought of you
as I sat upon my bed thinking of you. I came to a sombering conclusion of us. if you really loved me, enough to be with me, you would love me enough see it through. yet. here I am with no reminisce of you. oh, the dreary dread of the memories of you. as they fill with my head with the different sensations of being with you, the memory of you is shared between two.
I Did Not Mean It
I didn't mean it.
I didn't mean to hurt you,
I didn't mean to deceive you,
I didn't mean to lie,
It hurted me so much, inside,
I cried, for the pain I inflicted.
I didn't mean to lead you on,
I let my own heart gone astray,
I didn't mean to heap on your hope,
I didn't mean to steal your dreams,
I didn't mean to be mean-spirited.
You came across to me,
From out of nowhere,
While I was alone and lost,
You came across so strong,
My soul have not been touched,
With love of such tenderness,
My mind and heart have longed
To feel love like yours, for so ever,
I didn't mean to sing a wrong song,
I didn't mean to dance around your heart,
I didn't mean to tear your spirit apart,
I didn't mean to bend it out of shape.
Although I could not save your soul,
But...
If I could save you from crying,
I would not dwell on my feelings,
instead......
I would go to the end of the world,
and hide....
JUST FOR YOU...
So you can go on in your life, in peace.
Please forgive me.....
I AM SO SORRY!

You came across to me,

You came across so strong,
You made me feel alive and belonged again,
My soul have not been touched,
With love of such tenderness,
My mind and heart have yearned,
To feel love like yours, for so ever,
I didn't mean to sing a wrong song,
My heart really belonged to you,
I didn't mean to dance around you,

Walking along the Harbours
Walking along the rocky harbour,
I looked off into the clouds above,
The moon was shining ever so bright;
And I remembered the labour of love.
Artillery was being fired far and wide;
Where could I go?
Stuck in a musty chamber;
I tried to lie low.
For weeks, I hadn’t seen her,
Her face a fragile memory;
I yearned to be with her;
The week felt like a century.
Holding the letter in my hands,
Tears streamed down my face.
I collapsed onto the pavement
And I wished I could press ‘backspace’.
I believe in soulmates
Because of you
I believe in soulmates
Or else I’d lose you
I haven’t seen him in months
Haven’t talked to him for longer
I want to stop missing him for once
I’m getting weaker and can’t get stronger
I want peace in my heart
I want to be happy with who I am with
My head and my heart are torn apart
My feelings are nothing but a myth
I’m losing my mind and strength
I’m trying to push forward and make a new life
It’s ruining my mental health
He said he wanted me to someday be his wife
I can’t help but think the one I’m with now is a fling
Nothing but a mindless, heartless rebound
The memories won’t stop recurring
Wave of pain crashed and I drowned
“Come here”
You said, gesturing to the sunset.
I climbed up beside you, my legs dangling over the edge of the railing.
My breath sped up as you put your hand on my back
The thumping of my heart was felt all the way in my ears
I relaxed into your touch
just enough
for you to have complete control
I exhaled a sigh of relief,
for I had gotten what I’d always wanted
The sigh turned into a gentle breeze
And in that moment, I was falling
There were no butterflies
There were no sparks
Just your hand
On my back
Resting heavier and heavier
Until you gave me a push
And suddenly, I was falling
Not into your arms
But onto the
cold.
hard.
ground.
I loved loud.
Not in volume —
in intensity.
In showing up.
In remembering the little things you forgot you ever said.
In texts at 2am because I couldn’t sleep
without making sure you were okay.
I loved in playlists.
In forehead kisses.
In “did you eat today?”
and “text me when you get home.”
I loved in the way I bent
to fit the shape of your storms.
Let them pour through me
and still called it sunshine.
And you —
You smiled,
like you liked it.
Like you wanted to be chosen that hard.
Until you didn’t.
Until my love
started feeling like pressure.
Like too much.
Like a weight
you couldn’t carry
because you never planned on holding it that long anyway.
I loved too much.
Too deeply.
Too fully.
But what the hell is “too much”
when you’re giving someone everything
and hoping they stay?
Too much should be enough.
But instead,
you got quiet.
Started backing away
like my love was a fire
and you were just close enough to feel the warmth,
but not enough to burn.
And I?
I caught fire.
I turned myself to ash
trying to make you comfortable.
I apologized
for being the girl who gave a damn.
For loving in full color
When you only wanted grayscale.
So now I sit here
With this heart that still beats too loud
In a world that wants it quiet.
And I wonder…
What do you do
with a love that was never wrong,
just too much
for someone
who never planned
on staying?
