Anthology-Fool Period

       This is the second part of the Fool anthology series and will be the last. This is the period of stopping. This period happened during the third quarter of my grade 10. These poems' settings are in our classroom, and she sits on my left beside me.

       I once heard someone say, "When should I give up on somebody?" and the other person replied, "When they're not interested in you." From that on, I stopped. But still have the courage to ask what's the "thank you" all about. She said that she just appreciates when someone confesses to her. I still ask if she have feelings for me, and she said that she does not. And she just wants to focus on herself. I want rejection rather than just a "thank you" because that, I can't understand. I read once, "Rejection is a redirection of life." Another great quote from Thomas Edison, my favorite inventor and businessman, once said, "I didn't fail; I just found 10,000 ways that won't work." At last my favorite love quote “Love is just a word until someone comes around and gives it meaning” ~ Paulo Coelho.

Introduction

Whenever I look to my left

I couldn't hear the teacher

As if, I am deaf

And, all I can see is her.

Look to the left

Now or Never

My always instinct is "Now or Never"

One second of hesitation can be a year

I rather be rejected than feel regret

Now, this is the time I won't forget.

I stare to the window and close my eyes

Wondering, How could the world be

If I didn't met you,

Will my company be still the greatest?

Who could be the woman that will change me?

What will happen? I have no clue

Wondering

Every time I look through the window

I just wonder, how foolish I am

That I can fantasize everything

It's too real just like a hologram.

Through the window

Such a Misery

Not having you is such a misery

I can think of a better future

Having you is such a merrily

I can't think of a better future.

I wish

I wish I could see you again

On a random day, on a random place

Or even just in another universe,

I wish we can be together.

What if I knew

What if this is our last encounter?

Will you be missing me?

Maybe not, I'm just a blunder

If I knew that this is our last encounter

I'll invent a time machine

So I could replay this moment forever.

I knew that this is our last encounter

Because you wanted to

So I wouldn't let you flounder.

What if I knew that this is our last encounter?

I will be left wondering, stuck

I don't know, but I may die because of wonder.

What I knew is that this is our last encounter

Without even talking to you

Without even knowing you

But I know that you'll be leaving in an hour.

My Fool Period is just a period to an upcoming paragraph. Thank you for making me a "fool" and how to be not next time. I'll always be thank you "Frozen Spain.'

1/11/25.
