A Privilege

It was a privilege to know you.

It was a privilege to grow beside you.

It was a privilege to look up to you.

However, now you are gone.

Gone too early before I have finished growing.

You shared your knowledge of life with me.

I looked up to you for guidance, and you were always there.

Now I feel alone, adrift without you.

But I give not up on life.

I go on with life with you only in my heart instead of also beside me.

I Still Remember You

I Still Remember You

Even after all these years,

I still remember you.

You were my friend

when I had hardly any.

I wonder about your life

what would you have become.

But you never had the chance.

I still miss you at times.

I have dreamed of seeing your mom

and telling her, I still remember you.

I Wine

I prefer wine with friends.

Red, white, or rose is fine.

Only a glass or two are all I can have.

For if I have more, an h is added to my wine.

And then it is just me.

Thank you

Yes, I do care about you.

I always will.

However, separate lives we must lead.

And that will be ok.

You have taught me a lot.

And I thank you for it.

My life will be better off for having been with you.

But separate ways we must go.

With memories of you in my heart,

I go off to my future, and for you,

I wish you the best with whatever you do.

The Fork

We have come to a fork.

We have been there for a long time.

We talk about our options.

Which path to choose: the left or the right?

We reflect.

We talk some more.

We decide.

You go on the path to the right.

I go on the path to the left.

Whose Fault?

It was you fault.

No, it wasn't.

So it was my fault?

No, it wasn't.

So whose fault was it?

No one's fault.

Things happen.

No one to blame.

No one to punish.

Just move on.

It's no one fault.

Blank Mind

My mind is blank.

Thoughts move like a one tread tank.

Thinking of what to do,

yet I have no clue.

Formulate words I try

but only get a sigh.

My mind just wants to roam

as I write this poem
