Blues Poem by Ellen Rose Guilaran

You left on a Sunday.
My heart has been blue since

'I want to have your children'
Is probably the most romantic thing I ever said or do
Not because I want them to have your good looks but
But because I want to spend my lifetime with you

Did you think of me lately?
We were too busy having fun with our friends
We lost sight of us
Or am I alone in this?

You know I only want you, my magnolia to my fields of dead roses
Like how you want me for yourself
Is it why we can't be together because we're too different?

We thought and talked of marriage (and you hesitated)
Indeed what happiness
Now all you give me is blues
