(Spoken Poetry) Why Love?


(Spoken Poetry)

Why Love?

Sypnosis: Why Love?
Love is uncertain and love is ambiguous. This poem depicts that even when hurt even when left behind we always come back to it. This shows the How's and Why's of each person who is inlove.
 The speaker tells her story on how she loved and why she got hurt. She shows that even the greatest love can become the most sinister pain and all you could do is live to tell the story and believe that whatever the outcome of the relationship will be, acceptance is the key to move on.


WHY LOVE?

Love…
Love can carry even the impossible situations
Love build trust and power to every trials
In love, you pay attention
In love, you listen
In love, you don’t want to lose sight in any words
And in love, you let yourself penetrate deeply

But that was I, when I still believe in love
That was I, when I was alone
That was I, when I haven’t met you yet
That was that time
And, that is before
And now, I was left with questions on my mind
Questions of why’s

Why do I write lyrical poems? Why?
Why do I look in the mirror? Why?
Why do I go to school late? Why?
Why do I peek at the window as if waiting for someone to pass by? Why?

Why do I have to cry? Why?
Why did a part of my life changed? Why?
Why did you have to go? Why?
Why did you break your promises? Why?
Why did you go and leave me? Why?
Why do I open my eyes in the morning?
Why I was carried out by your words?
Why did I choose to believe in you?

These, these are the questions that lift and did not leave me.
For I am empty with your absence
Yet, I am dead with your presence.
You are my misery
You are my sorrow
You are my downfall
And yet, you mean happiness to me.

Since the day you left me
My heart shattered into pieces
I feel so weak, I can’t even speak
I feel so numb, felt like I’m so dumb
Tears falling from my eyes
I can’t really understand why

And there in the corner, I was left alone
In a place of obscurity, mess and gloom
Light of hope slowly fades
As the sun sets and the dark falls
With sweet memories that I still adore
Your face is what I see
In this room of loneliness
Tears keep falling on me,
Because of the heartache I felt

Time passes by and I can’t remember.
How time passed and not remembered,
Why until now,
Why until now I still love you
Your name,
Your name is what I still utter
A heart full of happiness
Left by destiny, full of loneliness
Few words that came from you
Full of bittersweet truth of you

Even the smell of your skin
It still reminds me of you,
The smile on your face, still lingers on me
The touch of your warm hand, still awakens me
The sound of your voice that touches my spine
That makes me think overnight
Please let me sleep at night peacefully
Because I can’t take this heartily

But then one day, all of my doubts has been cleared
When I saw you in another arms
And I can tell from then
That you are happy and look so contented
And I was left gray
It crushes my heart
I don’t want to see you apart
But I know what destiny would be
That you and me will never be.
