POETRY BY KA

Oh, the days of laughter and play, When worries never came our way. Dolls we dressed in gowns so bright, Their weddings filled with joy and light. We’d call the neighbors, one and all, To join the feast in our grand hall. A tiny world, yet so complete, With giggles echoing down the street. The rain would fall, we’d dance so free, Paper boats sailing in the sea. No fear of chills, no thoughts of pain, Just endless joy in drops of rain. Oh, my dear friend, where have you gone? The days we had feel like a song. Time ran too fast, we couldn't stay, Yet in my heart, you’ll never stray. The echoes of our childhood cheer, Still whisper softly in my ear. No matter where life’s rivers bend, You’ll always be my dearest friend. 💖

  I said my final goodbye to you, With an ocean of tears, my heart in two. I thought you'd stand by, hold me near, But you turned away, deaf to my fear. I thought you'd believe, understand my pain, See the storm within, the endless rain. You knew the weight I carried inside, Yet you left me alone, no one to confide. You betrayed the love I gave so true, All your words—a web untrue. Regret now lingers where love once lay, As I bid you farewell on that fateful day.                                                         KA

  The way I love you—how could I ever love someone else? The way you hold my hand, it feels like the world pauses for us, A never-ending feeling, a rhythm my heart can’t escape. The way your eyes meet mine—it’s like they see everything. Even when my world was falling apart, You pieced it together with your quiet strength, And I found hope in your gaze, a shelter in your embrace. Your voice, a melody I never want to stop hearing, It wraps around me like the softest lullaby, Filling every corner of my heart with warmth. The way you laugh—it’s contagious, Bringing light even to my darkest days. Every moment with you feels infinite, Like time slows just to watch us be. And yet, as I sit here wondering, How could I ever love someone else? You’ve set the standard for love so high, That no one could ever reach where you stand in my heart.

 I love the rain, it sings to my soul, A rhythmic dance, a soothing call. I love the moon, serene and bright, A guardian watching through the night. I love the snow, a whispered hush, Soft blankets fall, a tender brush. I love the warmth of a winter’s brew, A hot cup held as night winds blew. I love the streets when they stand so still, Lonely steps echo, my heart to fill. I love the river, its endless flow, A journey of dreams where secrets grow. But you came like a storm, unkind, A force that shattered peace of mind. You hate the tea that warmed my night, You turned my gaze from stars in flight. You made me question what I adore, The moon, the rain, the rivers’ lore. You taught me doubt, you made me fall, You made me feel unworthy of it all. Yet even now, beneath your shade, My love for these will never fade. For rain will cleanse, and rivers mend, And I will rise, my soul to tend. I’ll find the moon beyond your storm, A beacon bright, a love reborn. I’l...

I Shed My Tears for You I shed my tears for you, A river carved with sorrow, true. I thought your heart was bound to mine, A love that promised endless time. I thought I was your guiding light, The one you cherished through the night. But shadows fell where trust should be, And dreams dissolved so painfully. Each tear I gave, a whispered plea, For love that was not meant for me. I stood in hope, I held on tight, While you let go without a fight. I thought I’d be your first, your last, But I was only fleeting past. A soul misplaced, a passing thought— A lesson learned, though dearly bought. Now all those tears, in vain they fall, For I was nothing, after all. You were not mine; I see it clear— A truth unveiled through every tear.
