    the SILENT Treatment

    Okay..Im new here. Signed up just for this coz Im soo confused ryt now. It's about this guy I know. I mean...someone I once knew. Not really my ex coz we didnt have any commitment but we had this thing--special friendship you could say.
    I made this poem so u cud have an idea about it. (though it's sort of for him...but its not really intended for him to read it) Sorry...it's really long. hehe. Dont mind about the grammar, ok?! hehe.

    It was a few years ago
    When I met you
    You didn't catch my eye
    Coz you seem too fly
    Months and months went by
    I didn't seem to care for awhile
    I was minding my life
    I even remember having some crush on another guy

    One day, your bestfriend called me
    I didn't know what he was up to
    I was puzzled while I was approaching both of you
    He said "mao ni si nikay" (ENGLISH: THIS IS NIKAY)
    And you replied "o, kaila naku niya bai" (ENGLISH: YEAH, I ALREADY KNOW HER)
    And then you went back to your work
    as quickly as you could
    Weird...that's what I was thinking
    But I didn't seem to mind
    To hell I care with that strange guy.

    Weeks after that
    I bumped into you again
    Sportsfest, that is what I remember then
    We've got some common friends
    Funny, one of them introduced us again.
    And then came October
    I was transferred to the project where you were under
    On the first week, you asked for my number
    I didn't know you much then, so I wondered
    I'll be gone for a few days, you said
    Asking me for your next sked that's why you'll text.
    I was assigned to sit right next to you
    Glad you were someone I could somehow relate to
    coz you were funny and talkative
    or am i just too appreciative?

    December
    I didn't expect we would get closer
    I got the chance to know you alot better
    It was then when I saw you danced so well
    Damn! you're like a breath of fresh air.
    Before Christmas season was through
    You gave me that abstract thingy that was made by no less than you
    It was really special indeed
    And yes, the best gift I ever received.
    From that day onwards
    My feelings for you did change
    From friendship, it developed into somethin' else
    Well, you guys probably know what it is...i guess.
    We became constant textmates
    and often called even if it was already late
    Then you invited me for a date
    Of course I said yes!
    It went on for a couple of months
    My life then was like so much fun

    Then things suddenly changed
    One day you were so sweet,
    the next day you were acting like a freak
    Although you really didn't say anything
    but i knew something was missing.
    My world revolved around you
    but all of a sudden, you dropped me like a hot potato
    You kept your distance, so i kept mine
    Trying hard to live life like i was just fine

    After a month or two
    I realized i needed to stop these tears caused by you
    So, i opted to stay away from you and everyone else
    just to keep myself from being depress
    The night before my last day of work
    You came up to me like some kind of flirt
    You asked if i did change my number or so
    To hell with you, i didn't bother to answer yes nor no
    I remember that night
    You asked if you could hug me tight
    Though I missed it so bad,
    I resisted coz I know it wasn't right
    I wanted to talk to you but I just couldn't
    So, I left you a note instead
    Said my goodbye through a pen
    coz I felt so shy then

    Life after that
    was so damn tough
    I wanted to surrender
    But i know life would one day be brighter
    So i lived each day as it is
    Hoping one day, missing you would be far from my list
    Few months after
    God answered my prayer
    woke up one day
    Finally, with no tears and was happy
    Dated an athlete I've always got a crush on
    But that's another story I'll share next time with y'all.

    It was after a year
    I realized I missed my friends real bad
    I want the life I used to have
    so eventually, I decided to come back
    There i saw you again
    still on that old ways you're good at..and that is pretending
    pretending that you did not see me or anything
    but it was okay
    i didn't even want to say hi anyway
    I have loads of friends to mind about
    you were already the last thing i cared about.

    Time heals all wounds they say
    Finally able to throw those hurts away
    Learned to forgive and forget
    and not to even have a single regret
    Then we started talking
    stuffs we've been missing
    we became friends again
    and that's all that matters in the end

    And then you and your girl broke up
    ..oh i forgot to mention,
    he had a girlfriend while we were hanging out.. (BAD..i know!)
    you went up to me coz u were in a big trouble and depress
    You needed someone to talk to
    I was there to listen to you
    You asked for my number again
    I asked why?! I was hesitant.

    Then one late night, I got a text from you
    You were abit drunk
    You said you were sorry
    for all the things you've put me through
    for the promises you have broken
    never to leave me and everything
    I cried for awhile
    and replied, it's okay now. Don't mind. I'm fine.
    Though it took you a year to apologize
    I'm still thankful coz it gave me the peace of mind
    You invited me again more than once for an overnight or some kind of a party
    i wanted to but i declined
    coz I was afraid others would mind.

    Yeah..we became good friends again
    Laughed, talked, and shared some secrets

    But then again one day
    you decided not to talk to me again
    It's been like more than 2 months now
    What's the matter with you?
    have i done something that i shouldn't do?
    Hope you'll tell me one of these days
    coz I am sooo clueless
    I'm not sad nor happy
    about how our story turned out to be
    But if you don't want me as a friend
    I'm not gonna wait till the end.

    DONT WORRY GUYS....I WOULDN'T LET HIM READ THIS. LOL. BY THE WAY, HE HAS A NEW GIRLFRIEND RIGHT NOW. Yeah...i wont deny i still love him but I never showed to him again that i still do.

    Do yourself a favor, get a journal, write down your actual real feelings and thoughts rather than turn it into poems to past into the guy's section. Frankly, we're not going to bother reading it, let alone attempt to interpret what you're trying to infer.

    Either lay it out for us straight with associated questions or request for advice, or don't bother.

    I'm not being mean, just honest. It's great that you have a creative outlet, but poetry is subject to severe interpretation and frankly, we're guys. Which means we like the up front honest words coupled with what you want from us.
    "Well, then," the Cat went on, "you see a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad."
