A Poem From My Old Journal

 

A PROMISE...

when the sun
stops shining
and the moon 
ceases to cast its light...

 when the stars
will no longer
brighten up
the skies...

and the mountains
will be stripped
of flowers and trees
and of springs and valleys...

when the eternity
we both promised
to each other
will start to falter...

you'll surely see
my love will
always remain
forever true...


~I wrote this poem on March 20, 1989. Oh, to be young and in love! When I read my old poetry journal again, I cringed at all those juvenile creations. I didn't know I was such an "emo" back then. LOL!~

  7. Those were the age of frankness and spontaneous. Words just came out naturally and straight from the heart. I had made attempt to express myself through poems too.
