Horoscope: 9 Feb
“When was the last time you used a pen and paper, Virgo? In this age of computers, the keyboard has all but replaced these wonderful tools. In the same way that walking provides much more than fresh air, the kinesthetic value of the rhythmic motion of writing with a pen is far more soothing and even healing than most realize. Moving your hand across the page can feel good and unlock places within you that aren’t accessed by typing. Try it today.”
it’s so rare that i follow what my horoscope tells me. for this one, i didn’t actually follow it. i was already in the middle of the poem when i thought of checking my horoscope. but in any ways, i’m happy i came up with something. thanks to the pencil and paper
I JUST FEEL LIKE RHYMING AGAIN
i’ve been vacant for almost 3 years
i have been free from misery and tears
i easily moved on and made it through the ends
with the help of my beloved family and friends
but let’s not fuss about what has gone
much has been said, WHAT’S DONE IS DONE
so what pushed me into writing again?
nothing, I JUST FEEL LIKE RHYMING AGAIN
i’d like to talk about a number of boys
who treated me like i’m ONE OF THEIR TOYS
but i don’t intend to mention any names
coz i’m on my way to forgetting their names
the first one i must say is totally uncool
i’ve known him because we went to the same school
i was fooled by his crooked smile and sparkling eyes
between his words, it’s where DECEPTION LIES
he showered me compliments that my heart then needed
he wore a SOTANA, no wonder i was blinded
but a day came when his friend told me
that girlfriends, he surely did have plenty
clearly it came when i realized what he wants
damn, he just wanted to go under my pants
he also did the same thing to my precious friend
so you can’t blame me if I WISH HIM DEAD
there’s nothing interesting about boy number 2
he didn’t say anything, he did nothing too
he’s a gentleman and nice in all fairness
but i really wanna talk about him this LESS
he asked me to go out without nervousness
boy, i admired that CONFIDENCE
but i cursed that day and i swore it won’t happen again
I WON’T GO OUT WITH A BOY WITH NO MONEY IN HAND
let’s jump into the next conversation shall we?
his father happened to be friends with my daddy
i’ve always liked this HOMEBOY since childhood
i peek through my window when he roams around the neighborhood
even if we live in the same street
when we were young, we never had the chance for a MEET-AND-GREET
but came the day when we finally met
an acquaintance was done with no sweat
at first i thought he liked me too
coz he did some things out of WOO
but i did realize one thing instead
he just used me as a FILLER because he was broken-hearted
i’d be doing my self a big favor
if i try not to talk about dude number 4
but the thought of it i really can’t escape
knowing that he left my heart a THROBBING SCRAPE
i’ve never met a guy with such honesty
but he wasn’t sure of what he wanted us to be
“i don’t want you to stay away” is what he said
but he also made it clear that he can’t leave his girlfriend
he said what other people say doesn’t matter
he told me that WE WILL DO IT TOGETHER
but things turned the other way
i wasn’t really shocked though when he put me into dismay
he said it was unfair for me and his gurl
that he’ll make things right and things were OVER
over?? sherr! we haven’t even started
as if i actually thought of us getting started
i told him i never wanted to be just a THIRD PARTY
so if he can’t leave his girlfriend, then HE CANNOT HAVE ME
realizing that he DIDN’T HAVE THE BALLS, i said “let’s just be friends”
the issue will soon die as FATE intends
i never actually thought i’d count until five
remembering the names and memories as i strive
now what’s so special about this 5th boy?
we’re about to find out as my words start to deploy
like boy number 3, i’ve known him since childhood
we have same set of friends, WE WERE IN A BROTHERHOOD
we ended in a puppy love coz we thought we fell
by then, our knowledge about love was shallow, I CAN TELL
age eleven: we were together, age 12: we separated ways
we’ve grown up as time passed through the days
thanks to facebook, we started talking again
we enjoyed silly conversations about what happened
i let him inside our house and meet my family
the bonding was fine and all were happy
but the news came, it shook all the joy
my mom found out he’s got a girlfriend, oh boy!
i couldn’t understand why he didn’t tell me in the first place
I COULD’VE RID ALL THE SHAME THAT WAS POKED ON MY FACE
i let the public see me while i was with him
he DESTROYED THE TRUST i have given him
the first time we talked, i asked him if he had one
for a couple of times, he said he has none
he’ll regret the day he even thought of LYING
because KARMA exists in the world i am living
imagine the foolishness he just made
even made up stories, was he desperate?
well at least he didn’t intend to go under my pants
even if he had the chance
see how things went crazy?
how this 5 boys treated me
how they made me look like a FOOL
how they made me feel UNCOOL
each role they played differed throughout the game
but there is one thing that makes them ALL THE SAME
they all made me feel SOO DAMN UNPRETTY
they all slapped my face with the word “unworthy”
it’s sad to know that they’re all part of the list
that their NAMES IN THE PAPER i just couldn’t erase
they should’ve had 2nd thoughts in playing their games
now, they are all PROOFS that all boys are the same
in the list, there may be names that will be added
there may be dudes who’ll try to leave my heart JADED
but at least i get to learn and grow CLEVER
at least i can tell them “THIS TIME I KNOW BETTER”
they may have hurt my feelings doing such BULLSHIT
but they’ll soon realize that i was and I AM WORTH IT
i’ll soon find the RIGHT GUY for me
anyway, i’m NOT IN A HURRY
still it’s nice to know that we all ended up being FRIENDS
i’m glad to know that this is how the STORY ENDS
they are just humans who are bound to ERR
but mistakes they’ve to learn from & they must know how to put themselves together
so, i’ma wrap this up coz i’m already OUT OF WORDS
besides, i already made up and didn’t blunt my POINT
you see, i can give you the details just to make this poem even longer
but i’ve decided, it’s up to you to PONDER
