Blue Skies and Broken Hearts

I smile
with pure happiness
when the bird sings
when the grass is green
And when I turn around
When you look at me <3

*crumples*

Turtledoves
Mistletoes
Twelve months
of patient waitings
All of that for just
one day
Was it worth it?

Prams and cribs
Nurseries
and teddies
Nine months
of painful waitings
All of that for just
one day
Was it worth it?

Tears
Laughters
Night skies
and unruffled sheets
Lost count
of silent waitings
All of that for just
one day (to come?)
Is it worth it?

if u reali luv that person, then i think dat its worth waiting for him. it actuali depends on how deep ur luv is for dat person. theres sumthing i dun understand. wat does the beginning of the poem means? i dun get the crumpling part as well.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. :) Anyways, umm.. the first part shows a person writing about her puppy love which was dated back in '98. Shows innocence and all that butterflies-in-the-stomach kind of feeling. The crumpling means the writer is reading back what she wrote back in her adolescent days, and thinking of how silly and naive she was about love. And then she starts writing her current feelings after crumpling that old poem and throws it aside. Hope that explains. :)
