The Letter that can NEVER be Sent


Dear,

I am a loser, a coward
I can only watch you from the distance
I can never go and ask
"Why are you like this?"

You looked straight into my eyes the first day we met
Nobody has ever been very interested in me like how you did

Your eyes pierced my heart
Their sharpness shattered my voice
I was intimidated by you
But at the same time, mesmerised

I deny the voices that say
"You both are alike in a way"
To me, you were on top of the mountain
I was just starting to climb it
How can we both be the same?

Now you seem very fragile
I feel like slapping you
Before I grab you into my arms

How would you feel if you know
That someone else is distracted thinking about you?

Rain fell onto me I chose to ignore
The sky seemed to understand me more
I drank my coconut juice like a drunkard
Watching figures pass by with a sore

You saw and turned to confirm my identity
My eyes caught your subtle movements
I felt like the tables were turned
Then it was me who is petrifying

I am a loser, a coward
I let you walk away from me
Finishing my juice became the highest priority
Hoping that it soothes my heart
Instead of you having to face me

Assumptions, too many assumptions
In truth, there's no point of me
Giving a biased perspective upon you
These words may not hold true anymore because

I am a loser, a coward
I can only watch you from the distance
I can never go and ask
"Why are you like this?"

From,
Someone you know.
