Me and My Valentine's Day


From a corner, so dark and empty,
I see couples strolling past,
Eyes twinkling with profound love,
Making me feel like an outcast.

From a corner, so dark and empty,
I see Her holding a man’s hand,
Her face stretching into a smile,
And suddenly I know it’s the end.

From a corner, so dark and empty,
I see myself trudging with no aim,
Dreams and hopes shattered beyond repair,
To her, I was nothing but a game.

From a corner, so dark and empty,
I gaze at a glittering star,
Wishing I could be just like him,
Being free and loved even far.

From a corner, so dark and empty,
I stare at the crossroad ahead,
Too weak and worn out to move on,
With my heart and soul filled with dread.

Hahah. Sure! Well,I rarely look at it though. But whenever I pack my stuff, I always stumble and look at it. If I am not wrong, you talked about the 3 of us. Hahah. I mean the girls. I remembered you gave that card to us at Oldham Hall in ACS Canteen. Wow, my memory is not bad! Hahha
yeah yeah...the three of you!! Must have been a big surprise to you all, given the fact that i had never shown off how talented i was at writing Khmer poems ehehe.

Ven, are you broken-hearted? Sigh..It also breaks my heart to know that my friend's heart is broken. Really sad..!!

By the way, today is your birthday, and since I'm oceans apart, I can't do anything else besides laying my finger tips on the keyboard to send you these words via this electronic means. Well, birthday is not complete without the wishes from beloved ones, and as one of your beloved friends, here are the words from me:

May the color of your life be bright and shiny, the threads in your life strong and sturdy, and the aroma of your life fragrant and flowery. May you be able to forget all the painful past and to lift your head up to the sky for your blissful present and future.

The above is for your birthday, and this one is for Valentine's Day. Hehe..Don't wanna mix them together. Happy Valentine's Day!!! Actually, here it's Feb. 13, but I know it's Feb. 14 in Cambodia, so....Happy Valentin's Day in Cambodia.
To Barbie: thanks for wishing me a happy birthday hehe...well both Valentine's Day and my birthday fall on the same day every year so you may wish me a happy valentine's day first or the other way round.

To Hour: thanks for being proud of me, my friend! well, it was my first attempt at writing this poem so there are obviously some akward word choices.

TO PM: thanks for your blessings for me, pm! All i need is just your spiritual demonstration of care for me so distance in this sene has little impact on our friendship, and guess what? i know i have been right all along to have let you walk into my life as a friend in the first place. And, of course, happy valentine's day too!

Hey Ven!
Come on, you are not broken heart, aren't you? Did you take my advice into consideration? he he...!
Nice poem anyway but you has enver written any words for A1.1, A2.1, A3.1 and now A4.1
Well...heart-broken? Not really, i think! And as for your advice, i am indeed thankful, but its applicability is still being questioned, you see! hehehe...oh? i think i have written some quite recently...
