Unrequited Love


Unrequited Love 

Yes, I know we have all been there.  Have you been in situations where you like someone but he or she like someone else. I am speaking with the intent of exaggerating because when I see all I mean those who can relate to me. Ah, the word love in itself is an exaggeration  of feelings,hormones, neurotransmitter and hyperactive sections of the brain. I don't want to be scientific, this is just me yapping about the extreme grasp of love. It such a powerful word and emotion that it could make: poets;painters;novelists; singers;scientists; and in the dark side of the equation it could even give rise to criminals and robbers. (Although, I beg you not to dwell on the last part of the previous statement). I believe love comes in different dimensions and it could be cloth in the facades. One of which is the one-sided kind of love, what we call unrequited love. Who could be a better example of the agony felt when unrequited love showers you with its not so lovely blessing, than the lovely Eponine from Les Miserables.  The song "On My Own" from Les Miserables has move me to tears countless times. For me its like the anthem of all unrequited love.

Poetry: Unsure


Unsure
By Dara Mae Velasco

I am drowning in the miseries of my life
Contemplating on whether I should end it with a knife
I want to cry
Or bleed myself dry
What is worse, dying young?
Or living with everything else going wrong ?
I am troubled and I need peace
I just could not find it in this earthly place
No voice could calm the child inside of me
No touch can make pain go away
It’s like the scar that never heals
In my spine, it sends down chills
Feelings that I could not simply deny
Am I leaving a lie?
I have come to the point where I can’t see
The future ahead of me
Once upon a time
I was at my prime
When ask what I want to be
I was sure to answer with such a glee
If you would ask me now
I would simply give a sigh and bow
For I am unsure
And there seems to be no cure
