Destiny Girl

I’ve been trying to understand
Some things that have happened
But, sometimes, it seems to me that
The more I try to reach an answer
The biggest is the distance
Maybe I should just let the word “destiny”
Fade away from my mind
I cannot become blind
Because of such a thing

I intend to close my eyes
Take a deep breath
And soon forget it
Just by setting focus on my studies

Perhaps I should pay more attention
On myself and put girls aside
I can’t let my life depend
So much on someone other than me
I must set me free
From this nightmare called love
Just like the butterflies
Which secret is not to try to catch it

I’m tired of waisting days
Only thinking of a “special girl”
Without having concentration
To do anything else on the whole day.
I’m tired of writing poems
As a way to relief my pain

It’s time to change a few things
And I’m gonna change myself.
