The Gift

The one you love can give you the most strength,
Can also leave you at your weakest,
And the love that inspires you to go such length,
Can also bring you down to the blackest,
So as our gift too.

My gift of remembering vividly and expressing through words,
Is not something everyone can do,
Through various art forms eventually, I can envision myself into many worlds,
Although imaginary, it feels wonderful, 
But sometimes...unpleasant.

Day 40, April 29th
I dreamed a dream when I was still in high school,
And you were by my side, so perfect,
Together with no words spoken, the world we already ruled, 
With you by my side, I will protect.
Then I suddenly dreamed I was in a grand prom, 
Everyone was there, but you,
I searched endlessly for you so I roamed,
In the end, they danced but us two.

Day 51, May 10th
I dreamed from where I left off, I was in a metropolis,
People, people everywhere,
Still no sight of you, my peace continued to cease,
  No air no air, such nightmare.

Day 90, June 17th
I then dreamed where I finally got a house,
In a countryside, the green grassy plains,
 Beautiful, just like how you wanted.
  I also dreamed an earthquake roared as quiet as a mouse,
In an instant, I heard you shrieking in pain,
Terrified, I've never felt so daunted.
And before the dream ended from being aroused,
In my delusion, I failed to see you again,
Let down, the cracked holes left me taunted.

Day 110, July 7th
I had a dream with my friends in a singing room,
Together, we sang sorrow,
And out of nowhere, you appeared by my side.
Eye to eye, as if we were staring at the moon,
Together again, we refused to withdraw,
With you by my side, our lips then softly collide.

Thinking back, I've always wondered what your kiss meant,
It felt so real and full of life, as if like it was God sent.
But why did it feel that it was the last goodbye?
I know I won't get anywhere if I try to ask why,
Even if you see me cry with your very own eyes,
As I know that was the very last dream about you,
Same goes to this poem too...
The last poem I'm ever writing being a lovefool.

So long.
