DOWNCAST

DOWNCAST
by Dreamy Poetess

People don't really care,
They just don't understand.
When you don't have time to spare,
When you can't even stand.

When you are hit with mood swings,
And things spiral out of control.
You bear the weight it brings,
And what your problems extol.

People don't truly see,
They only pretend to know.
Yet, they wouldn't agree,
With the outcome of the blow.

I admit that I deny,
I, too, am guilty as charged.
Can't even open an eye,
Quick to judge, emotions enlarged.

People are hurt, that's for sure.
And sometimes they only feel,
But they don't think of the cure,
For the one that is so ill.

Misunderstandings are real,
Everyone carries their own flaws.
Close your mouth and seal the deal,
When feelings talk, it often misdraws.

But people can also relate,
Each person bears their own load.
Even if you can't translate,
Let your horizons expand and explode.

TULIRO

TULIRO by Dreamy Poetess Ikaw ay tuliro at di alam ang gagawin. Akala mo naman ay hindi ko napapansin. Mag-ingat ingat ka 'wag mo sa'king babanggitin, Mga utos mula sa'yo'y ayaw kong isipin. Pinapainit mo ang ulo ko wala ka bang alam? Sa mga tao sa paligid mo walang pakialam? Ako ngayo'y lito at mayroong agam-agam. Ako'y lalayo na muna pagka't ako'y nasusuklam. Ikaw ay tuliro, hindi mo nalalaman, Na bawat kilos mo'y aking natatandaan. Ingatan mong magsalita, huwag mong babanggitin, Huwag mo akong isama sa mga haka-haka't duda. Ginagalit mo ang aking damdamin, Walang alam sa mga tao, ba't di mo pansinin Ngunit ako'y nababalot ng kalituhan, Lumalayo muna ako, 'pagka't sa'yo'y nasusuklam.

IDOL

IDOL by Dreamy Poetess Why did I compare you to me? You're everything I want to be. I put you on a pedestal, Though I am unconventional. Of all the things that you've achieved, There is none that I have received. I felt like I was in the dust. But now all I want is your trust. All I want is to be like you. To make all of my dreams come true. But I'm not you and you're not me. I'll just make do with what I see.

TRACES OF RESILIENCE

TRACES OF RESILIENCE by Dreamy Poetess Scars etched deep within, strength's tale to display, Stories unfold, darkness and light dance and sway. From wounds we emerge, steadfast and renewed, Embrace the struggles, shaping what we've pursued. In times of vulnerability, sanity's questioned, Love's gentle gaze brings solace, hearts destined. Amid blooming flowers and sunny paths we tread, United, we find solace, by each other's side we're led. Endurance guides us through the haze of our days, Blossoming through winter's grip, resilient always. Hearts find solace in our shared journey's flow, Scars transformed into beauty, our story on show. Under the hanging tree, longing fills our hearts, Close your eyes, find solace, love's embrace imparts. Through whispers and waits, hope's seeds are sown, We soar, witnessing your essence, trust forever known. Tears ache, wind's chill, my heart stands firm and true, Embracing desolate roads, filling spaces ane...
