TONIGHT I CAN WRITE THE SADDEST LINES
I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
Write, for instance: "The night is full of stars,
and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance."
The night wind whirls in the sky and sings.
I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.
On nights like this, I held her in my arms.
I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky.
She loved me, sometimes I loved her.
How could I not have loved her large, still eyes?
I can write the saddest poem of all tonight.
To think I don't have her. To feel that I've lost her.
To hear the immense night, more immense without her.
And the poem falls to the soul as dew to grass.
What does it matter that my love couldn't keep her.
The night is full of stars and she is not with me.
That's all. Far away, someone sings. Far away.
My soul is lost without her.
As if to bring her near, my eyes search for her.
My heart searches for her and she is not with me.
The same night that whitens the same trees.
We, we who were, we are the same no longer.
I no longer love her, true, but how much I loved her.
My voice searched the wind to touch her ear.
Someone else's. She will be someone else's. As she once
belonged to my kisses.
Her voice, her light body. Her infinite eyes.
I no longer love her, true, but perhaps I love her.
Love is so short and Forgetting is so long.
Because on nights like this I held her in my arms,
my soul is lost without her.
Although this may be the last pain she causes me,
and this may be the last poem I write for her.

I read this poem during my worlite class last monday...a very sad poem that really touches my heart and as i observed the whole class...I just smiled and realized that I'm not the only one who can relate to this poem....
How powerful love is it can create the happiest part of your life and at the same time destroy it... It can change a person in a instant...
I hope that God will allow us to invent a anti-love drug....hahah...After we read this poem our professor asked us to explain our favorite verse in the poem...
"Love is so short and Forgetting is so long"
"Although this may be the last pain she causes me,and this may be the last poem I write for her."
these were my answers...
ala lng i dont know but this two verse remind me of him...
I think my heart had given up...Subconcious ata un hahaha....i know that my mind doesn't want me to give up ang dami kc memories na nakastore dun...pero napagod din ung heart ko and I thank God that he allowed me to tire my heart... that i will be the one to end my sufferings...he let me to find my own comfort zone...he allowed me to believe in myself na wala akong d kakayanin bsta andyan xa...he showed me that I'm shirley b4 dumating xa and ngaun wala na xa...I'm still shirley....I'm happy coz kaya ko naman pla mawala cla eh...
