A Change Is Coming

A Change Is Coming

A Poem by Jas Alejandrino Ramos

Trap in the shadow,

Shadow of my past life

Can’t let go of the things,

Things that made me happy

It is you that I still want

 

And I’m still tangled up inside

My heart is in misery

Still I can’t let go of you

Can’t let go of the hurt that you brought into my heart

The way you left me unspoken in silence

Fill with emptiness in my heart

 

You just don’t know that you’re my dream

My dream that will not come true anymore

So I just boxed that dream

Boxed it so that it will not spill

So that I will not be dreaming for that dream anymore

 

I want to be free from this hurt

But I still love you

So now I’ll let you go and be happy

Even it hurts inside

If that what it takes to be free from this pain

I’ll do it and change my lonely life

 

I know a good change is coming in my life

To change that dream,

That abandoned dream of mine

To dream again

To be free again.

A change better come and it better come soon and I don't get mad easily, but all the racism keeping people from each other makes me sick. And you know if someone tells me I can't hang out with someone, because of how they look...I'm going to go out on a limb! I love this you did a good job keep it up!

Good way of releasing your frustrations in life. Emotionally-driven poems are usually the most memorable poems, because you could be sure that someone would relate to your writing, and so it will be remembered. I think I know how you feel when you were writing this poem.. lonely, kinda frustrated because you can't do anything to make yourself feel alright, when all you wanted to do was give up but you can't because all things around you, even the people, even your own memories or thoughts remind you of your failures or your "kabiguan" (yes.yes. I know your language. :p A few words only though XD) When all you wanted to do is to rest because you're exhausted of trying over and over again to make peace with yourself... Hmm. That's how I feel sometimes.. Well, I am one of those who could relate, and I thank you for posting it. It's kinda comforting to know that I'm not alone in this... though I really hope you get through this phase of your life. Good luck. keep it up.

I loved the emotion and the two lines:
So I just boxed that dream
Boxed it so that it will not spill
Were my favorites
