I Can't Be Just Your Friend
You observed my perpetual sadness
And your curiosity got the better of you,
But you didn’t intend to give more than words.
You texted me on Facebook Messenger,
And you asked me some personal questions.
At first, I was a bit hesitant to respond,
But I gave in because you persisted.
Although you weren’t aware of my needs,
You said you wanted to help me.
I asked you to have a baby for me.
You didn’t take my feelings seriously.
You thought I meant a surrogate mother.
I don’t know why I trusted you.

This Isn't Love
Honey, I can differentiate love from dissembling.
And if this manipulation is what you call love,
I’m afraid you really don’t know what love is.
The sad thing is that I’ve wasted my love on you.
Your love is fictitious as the script of a romantic drama.
When I’m with you, it’s like having a nightmare.
You say you’re concerned about my eudemonia,
But you make my world boring and uncomfortable.
Lately I’ve felt battered and abused psychologically.
I won’t trust you with my vulnerability again.
You walked out on me, and now you come...

The Hardest Thing To Tell Her
I-love-you is the hardest thing to say to the miss I secretly adore.
Every time I see her, I tell her the nicest things I can imagine
And hope that she will read between the lines somehow.
Sometimes I lavish her with complimentary lines and quotations,
But there is no other way to say “I love you,” except “I love you.”
Why can I not tell her “I love you” in her presence?
I say it many times when I am alone and she is in my thoughts.
I-love-you is the hardest thing to tell her.
Even if I converse with her from morning until evening, ...
Every time I see her, I tell her the nicest things I can imagine

I-love-you is the hardest thing to tell her.

We Must Act Now
For the missing persons and their families
The photo of an adolescent is on the front page of the newspaper.
Another report about a missing student is on the television.
Have you seen any of these persons?
Do you have any knowledge of their whereabouts?
Who is responsible for the strange disappearance of these children?
And whom should we blame for this cruel game?
Babies and teenage girls are primary targets of kidnappers.
Unfortunately, nobody is safe to go anywhere.
Some persons have been reported missing since last week, ...

Her Love Was Too Good to Be True
For Stacy-Ann
I told her that my love for her would never end.
She knew that I meant every word and I would prove it.
I promised her that I would stay by her side,
And I tried earnestly to fulfil my promise.
I felt that our relationship could go on without consequences,
And she believed that we could stay together for a lifetime.
We imagined that life in fairyland was possible,
But we were only fooling ourselves.
We had a peculiar love for each other,
And this was the only thing that mattered to us.
Life was...

I'm Obsessed with You
For Monique
Would you like to talk to me before you go to bed?
I’m lying down by myself, facing a patch of boredom.
I can’t fall asleep tonight because you’re on my mind.
The only thing I can do is send you some text messages.
I honestly think you’re an exceptionally kind person.
And I want to embrace you and kiss you every day.
I’ve been lusting after you since the first semester.
Sometimes I fantasise about you and me making love.
I hope you don’t mind me expressing my feelings. ...
