As promised, Milord

Milord Charlatan Gwindain Smithy, remember when thou hath asked me when I would put up a poem of mine? Well, Milord, this is it. Like I promised, here's one of the poems originally written by me.


There's a history to that poem, kind sir. T'was placed in my school's literary publication back when I was in my senior year in ICA. This is the original draft. Coincidentally, this poem actually involves a knight and a maiden. haha :D

 

Hope thou enjoyst Milady's handiwork.



P.S. Me thinks I soo need to work on my Old English, Milord.

 


Forgotten Love

Snowflakes in clusters
Fall slowly to the ground
The world is silent
No one can hear a sound
 
A tear drops
Memories buried in the snow
The world is lonely
The chilly wind blows
 
The haunting silence
Slowly fills the air
Save for some tearful sobs
Yet no one is there
 
A maiden sits by the window
Waiting for him to come
She knows that it's all over
After what their love has become
 
Even though their love has faded
She patiently sits there
Watching and waiting for her man
Still hoping he would care
 
It?s late at night, the clock has struck
The maiden still awaits
She knows that all is hopeless and she's all alone
What a horrible twist of fate!
 
It's twelve o'clock, the clock has struck
A figure emerges from the darkness
'Tis he, the lady's knight in shining armor
Yet his heart is filled with sadness
 
He knows not if he should knock
And ask for a second chance
But then he hesitates and pulls away
As the snowflakes begin to dance
 
Does she still remember me?
Does she still know my name?
I used to think our love would last
Now I know it won?t be the same.
 
He hopes the maiden would find a man
One who would treat her right
For he had given up on their love
With no knowledge that she waited all night
 
Thus this sad and lonely soul
Turns away from the love he has known
He trudges on knee-deep snow
Trying to forget memories sown
 
The weather is horrid, the wind is fierce
Chaos all over and then---silence
 
A maiden sits by the window
Her heart frozen by the snow
The knight lies still on the ground
As the fierce winds continue to blow...

This is my THIRD blog entry for the day. It's enough proof that I should get a life instead of bonding with computers and the internet. haha :D

I'm starting to dislike Taekwondo. My limbs and abdomen are killing me. I don't like our coach that much. I mean, I told him I had a class at 3pm so I asked if he could end the class 10 minutes before.  He told me he would, but he didn't. Hrmph.

Filipino class, as usual, was fun. Block R3 was, well, Block R3--a crazed bunch of people with different personalities whom I love dearly. You guys RAWK. You guys are the reason why I'm enjoying college life. (MYIPS, kasama na rin kayo dito..haha labyu guys!:D). We're planning this class project for Filipino. Wonder what happens...the project's due on Saturday! 0_o I'm in the Design Committee and in the Presentors Committee. I will help design the arc, and I will probably act out something. Ewan. Will find out what I'm gonna really do--soon.

On the way home, I bumped into Charlie Smithy--again. Seems like I've seen him for about a kabajillion times today. haha:D Seriously speaking, I SAW HIM EVERYWHERE. It's nothing new to me. I mean, sometimes I feel like my day has a theme--like there's this one person I see and/or hangout with everyday. Today was Charlie Smithy Day. haha:P Just like me, he was heading out to Katipunan, so we walked and talked 'til we reached the overpass.

Darn. I still don't have an org yet. I haven't signed up for ACTM and Celadon. I'm still undecided whether I should join ADS and/or AMA. Help me..haha

MM, wala akong OrSem crush. Is it wrong to be simply happy lang? Is it wrong to have a love song stuck in my head? haha..baka ikaw meron :P Peace!
