YOU

Hello!
   Hello!
Are you there?


Hey it’s me
   Remember?

The first time
   We seriously talked
   I think I was nine. 


But even before that
   we have met already.
You were always smiling
   but never said a word.


Sometimes
   You will just stare at me.
At times as if you’re
   reading me. 

I wonder if you
   ever listened to me.

Have you gone mad
   at me?
I know you’re not
   judgmental.
But did you
   ever get mad?

Are you like this
   to everyone?

Don’t you get tired
   and bored?
Because sadly
many times I do.

There are even
   times that I feel so lazy
   meeting you on Sundays.

So, I would force myself
   to go to our meeting place.

And when I arrived
   even though late
   you will still welcome
   and smile at me.

And since you know
   I love songs
   you gather people
   who will sing for me.

When I am in a beach
   you still make your presence felt.

Sometimes in the form of the clouds,
   the colors of the sky, the beauty of
   sunrise, through the trees, the water
   and even mountains.

And every time I forget
   however, unintentional
   you can still keep track.
   And often times remind me
   that you’re still there waiting.

You poke me in my sleep
   through dreams.
   Even on my waking hours
   if not directly me through
   people who are so dear to my heart.

If you are not using people,
   you use situations
   just to make me come and
   talk to you.

You never say a word,
   okay, I finally understand.
   While you don’t speak
   you can make me realize,
   help see things and
   understand what you want
   me to do.

Are you forcing me to believe
   or better, you want me
   to have faith in YOU?
