LITERARY

Words: Khryzztine Joy S. Baylon

Time tick in the flash when you came

Standing in front to tell your name

Cross-finger for your nerve to tame

Trying your best not to look lame

 

The loneliness pushed you forward

Bringing you some people toward

You chat if it’s even awkward

Hoping to be a friend afterward

 

Your little sprout of hope grew big

The roots of friendship deeply dig

You share stories and laugh like a pig

And you all sing like a small gig

 

The joy lets you smile ear to ear

Their jokes are all you want to here

They’re like magnets that pull you near

And their absence is what you fear

 

But life is not all about joy

There’s also sorrow that annoy

Life isn’t always saying hello

Biding farewell is just below
