Ma. Izza Ledesma Puey Poetry

Felt my heart about to blow

With the breaking of the dawn

Was just going with the flow

Now I’m drowning in forlorn



Tried to sleep my tears away

But the cold seems to seep in

Asked myself if you would stay

So I’d know where to begin



The guilt is just too hard to keep

I know you knew it all along

And that’s why tonight I weep

Cause it’s with you that I belong



But I fell for someone else

Who took my feet off of the ground

I kept on floating with pretense

Logic was nowhere to be found



And when reality finds its way

I feel myself about to fall

Then regret starts in to sway

It’s you who’ll catch me after all



I am shivering in the night

Just staring blankly into space

Then you come and calm my fright

Wipe the tears off of my face



Though your voice was faint and weak

Cause you woke up from your sleep

It gave me comfort that I seek

To know your heart’s still mine to keep



I found it hard to start my sorry

When the scope is just too wide

But you told me not to worry

Cause you’ve known what is inside



You heard the words I haven’t said

Looked behind the acts I tried to play

You’ve read the things inside my head

But still you’re here with me to stay





Cause in the end there’s just you

When everyone else leaves me behind

You’re a person who’s so true

One whom I could rarely find
