Living (In My Dreams)

Your face is molded to my hands

Your smell lingers wherever I go
Your voice sings on repeat in my ears


I don’t wanna concede
I don’t wanna move a bit
I don’t wanna wake up from my magical daydream


Peeking, glancing, staring
All I could do
Peeking, glancing, staring


Nervous,scared, petrified
I wanna come close
I wanna smile
I wanna say hi


Peeking, glancing, staring
All I could do
Peeking, glancing, staring from afar


Always rushing to bed
Sleeping even in the train
Because it’s only in my sleep where
I hold your hands
I kiss your hair
You so gently whisper in my ear

Always willing to be out of my mind

Even in class

Because it’s only in my day dream where

You stroke my hair

You kiss my lips

I tell the world I love you

In my fantasies we belong to each other
In reality you’re but a dream
Peeking, glancing, staring
Always stolen
Peeking, glancing, staring from afar


I don’t wanna wake up
In my sleep, In my daydream


Constantly
Peeking, glancing, staring
Stolen, uh huh, stolen
Get some help, I’m a thief
Peeking, glancing, staring from afar

One day you,
You’ll be stricken, smitten
No more stolen
Peeking, glancing, staring
You will notice me, and not the girl who

Constantly breaks your heart

I don’t wanna wake up
In my sleep, In my daydream
Constantly
Peeking, glancing, staring
Stolen, uh huh, stolen
Get some help, I’m a thief
Peeking, glancing, staring

‘‘ Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter.’’ ~ John Keats

Some teenage puppy love right there... :-)

Been in the mood of writing poems recently. But this one I wrote months back and was originally written in Filipino, because I intended to submit it for a song writing competition, but I wasnt able to send for some reason...
