a poem made for me by stephanie

photography by: kimberly (me). =) 

the picture is some sort of a candle in a glass thingy.. haha. i took this picture during a blackout. i loved the effect.. and the picture suits the poem. =P

so this poem was composed by my friend stephanie. =) she entitled it kimmy! haha! cuz it was for me.. but then i didnt like the title of her poem so this poem will be entitled... uhm.. i have no idea! haha! so anyway just read it. =) ..and YOU.. i bet YOU'RE reading this.. ;)


she held the candle in her hand
for all the world to know
she was inlove with someone
she had to let go.

her broken heart could not take the pain
as she whispered a goodbye.
she held on to the candle tight
her tears could not run dry.

he said he loved her deeply
as he lit the candle's wick
he never meant to hurt her
he said life played a cruel trick

"why would two people fall in love,
if they were never meant to be?"
thats what she said to him
as she was letting him free.

he wanted to stay with her
but he had to leave
his eyes showed so much sadness
as her eyes showed deep grief

it was a tearful moment
when they both parted ways.
but one thing that amazed me most
was when the candles light never faded away.

"In Sepia"
by:yours truly

On a dark lonely night like this
I write slowly
My hands shaking as each letter are carefully written
Fingers wrapped on my companion, my pen
I must document what I am feeling
Tears overflowing, filling my eyes
Sadly drops to this paper I write

A tear cascaded to my lips so pure
I licked my lips and it was like salt water still not a cure
Each tear represented pain and endless sadness
Depression and the blues crawled over my existence
Encovering my thoughts with thinking bubbles and pain

As I felt a tear drop from my sparkless eyes
It dropped to my paper and modestly spread bigger and blotched the ink
The smile that once glistened once on my lips is gone
My heartbeat returned to its normal state and it was done
You quickly disappeared as if a strong gust of wind blew you away
You did not hold on and in just a snap you were absorbed in an illusion
The only thing left to do is to ignore me
A priceless solution to forget about me
A world like glass quickly shattered
Like an empty paradise, butterflies gone
Was it all just a dream?
Did it just occur in my subconscious mind?

I lie on my back, slowly breathing
I could only hear my heart beating up my throat
Tears soaked my pillow
I remained motionless, staring at my surroundings
The once colored world I know was back to black and white
It was in sepia

As of this moment, I could stay this way forever
Motionless and blank, paralyzed in a bad dream
I blinked and closed my eyes
I wished it was all just a dream
A dream that was once saturated with beautiful colors
A dream that I once called my life
