WORLDS APART

I would have loved to love you.
Take away all the pain he caused you,
Gently hold you, never let go,
My hand, forever clasped in yours.
Travel the world around, just you and me,
We could have been, though imperfect,
A wonder for the world to stare at,
A love so sweet, in the most unlikely places.
A garden of roses that never dries, its petals always fresh.
But then, we couldn't be,
For you were the moon and I the sun,
And we rise at different times.
Maybe, just maybe, "I must be wishing on someone else's star."
May love find you,
Without reservation or fear,
And treasure you for such a beauty you are.

Aaron Taulo The Poet

I searched for you in empty places,
Places where air was the only resident.
Even then, I hoped to smell your presence

I saw you in dreams that never ended,
My only rescue was daybreak

My heart beat, and with every beat, it called out your name

But then,

You left without saying goodbye, and that, that's the cruelty of silence.

It keeps you hoping, guessing and wishing,
Even if it's against all logic.

Yesterday, I woke up and realised,
Finally, there was no you on my mind

I guess it's true what they say; time heals,
Perhaps, maybe even mend broken pieces

So, time flew so fast and you became the very embodiment of the phrase "out of sight out of mind."

Honestly, the truth is,
I wouldn't wish to meet you again,

But as life has it, its a small world and,
Because fate tries to play little tricks on my heart,

If our paths cross again,
"I'll just say hello and shake your hand,"
For I am, finally, whole again
