Whispers - 1. Poem

Whispers

by Hylas

If I die today, bring me not to heaven,
Nor drag me down to hell,
But bring me to my beloved,

So I may whisper the words,
I've never had the heart,
To tell him in life

I love you forever...

Short, I know. Hehe. I remember how wretched I was when I wrote this though. It seems such a long time ago now. This was the time I found out my crush had somehow acquired a girlfriend, LOL (Tiff, you know who I'm talking about). I'm over it, but this passage is still something dear to my heart.

This is one of the four or five poems I'm posting. Rad Steven commented on how some passages in my stories were poetic and asked me if I ever wrote poems. Well, I did! LOL. I spent a day rummaging around boxes and boxes of my old stuff. Man, I really was into a lot of shit back then. Among other stuff, I had to wade through notebooks full of foreign, ancient, and made-up languages (including Quenya or 'Elvish' of LoTR fame); sketches and art scraps I couldn't bear to throw away; school notes filled with surprisingly good doodles; taxonomical lists of classes mammalia, aves, and reptilia; some college entrance exam tests with scores at a minimum of 95% and a max of something graded paradoxically as 100%+ (which I'm still proud of, LOL, though I was never serious in my applications to most of them); tables of hiragana, katakana, greek, cyrillic, old german, runic, sanskrit devanagari, arabic, hieroglyphics (o.O), and yes, elvish script too, LOL; old computer programming codes; errata on my probably lifelong and intense passion for paleontology (including a collection of mostly early cenozoic marine fossils and printouts of dinosaurs); old dried and pressed leaves and flowers from nature hikes; forgotten pictures; my now tarnished captain's badge, sword, and beret in high school Citizen Army Training (kinda like a preliminary ROTC); unsent love letters and old fairy tale gags; and much much more. ROFL. Dust bunnies too, LOL. It was unexpectedly really really fun. Kinda like an archeology of your memories. LOL

I recommend it to everyone. ^^
