Me the Poet

come here let me tell you something
it's a bit about how i started to write
my poetry might not be oscar worthy
but it's better than paris hilton's songs

i've got a lot of stuff in my head
so i thought that i should jot them down
it's not always what your folks approve
but hey! it's what's in my head

you can call me pervy
sleazy or dreamy
even brokenhearted at times
but i know that you can relate

i'm not trying to be a robert frost
or a 2pac clone
i'm just giving my thoughts a voice
is there anything wrong with that?

Why the Sudden Interest?

what's with the change of tone
why do you try to sound like you care
don't say that i ruined our future
how can you say i threw it all away

why the sudden interest
is it because
you saw me with someone else

we were over
long time ago
though none of us admitted
afraid to leave our comfort zones

stop trying to relive the past
we are no more
hope you get the message
and stop acting like you care
it's a bit too late for that

Running into a Storm

with you on my right
and her on my left
i keep running into
a big storm

maybe it's strange
that i am not quitting
putting myself through
all this trouble

i don't feel any sadness
only embracing the bitterness
and expecting more heartaches
to fuel up these emotions

maybe i'm tired
of everything being perfect
to be smooth sailing
through life

so let the storm come
and roughen up the sea

Hiding Sun

the sun is hiding behind the clouds today
it's all gloomy in here
and i'm cuddling under the sheets alone
wishing you were here

the alarm keeps going off
and i don't want to shut it off
it's what brings me back to reality
from a galaxy of thoughts about you

it feels good for a moment
to sink in those memories of you and me
but i crossed that ocean long time ago
and i am not going back

I Won't Be Your Beggar

she calls me a stranger
when i call her my angel
and i can't figure out
how to change her mind

she asks me to leave her
when i want to stay here
all tangled up
with her

my patience is running out
and maybe i should leave
but it is hard
to get her off my mind

as much as i love her
i can't be a beggar
so if this is the end
i'll pack up and leave

The Other Guy

i'm the one that she comes to
when her guy doesn't give her attention
and then she spends time with me
because she likes the way i treat her

when he doesn't talk to her
she comes to me to make conversation
when he doesn't make love to her
she comes to me to get satisfaction

but then she leaves me
once her guy comes around
and when he wants her back

i'm left with nothing
except the pleasurable memories
that she and i made together

and i can't ask for more than that
because i'm the other guy

I'm No Superhero

i can't fly
or break down buildings
i might not be able to run
faster than a speeding train

because i'm no superhero
nor an angel
but that won't stop me
trying to fix things

to make sure that everyone's alright
i'll keep trying
till everything works out
for the better

putting my life on hold
so that i can see more smiles
on the faces
of those whom i love

Not Mine

i saw her leaving the bar
with him
his arms wrapped around her

i turn around to talk to my date
so that i'd distract myself
from thinking about her

his lips on hers
his hands on her hips
these thoughts invade my mind

i look away
and think to myself
why i always desire
someone else's girl

Love is Gone

would you listen to me
if i said that i have something to say
if you don't want to talk
i understand

i used all my chances
i'm not here to give excuses
one proper conversation
one last kiss
is all i need

i'm not trying to hold on to this
i just need closure
my only hope is we move onto something better
because love left us long time ago

Make Up or Break Up

if we don't spend
tonight together
it's over
baby it's over

you keep giving excuses
give it up and come clean
who's that other guy
don't tell me there's no one

stop webbing stories
to find a way out of this
you've run out of chances

so choose tonight
it's either
make up
or break up
