I'm not the poet who wrote Mahabharata with 220000 stanzas, I'm just Zhaina who wrote The One with 14 stanzas.

Okay that didn't make any sense.

At 12 o'clock, she's still wide awake
A million thoughts inside her mind
Choices regretted, she decided to make
Solutions she hopes to finally find

Her head rests on her soft little pillow
Staring at nothing but the plain, cold air
The silence made her feel all the sorrow
Made her remember that he didn't even care

Out of the silence, she heard a loud sound
Only the sounds were her sobs that night
She tried to stand but only fell to the ground
Wish she could maybe make everything right

She pounded her fist on the cold, hard floor
How could the silence made her feel all these pain?
Made her remember all the pain felt before
Remembered the time left alone in the rain

Out of her sobs was another odd sound
Her phone rang loudly on her drawer
She first hesitated, but stood up to the ground
His name on her phone made her cry even harder

Why would he call in the middle of the night?
Her confusion was making her head ache so bad
Would answering it make everything all right?
Or would it make her feel even more sad?

She picked up the phone and pressed the button
Placed on her ear with her little hands shaking
A sudden hello made her feel the need to run
Flashed on her mind was him slowly leaving

Her mouth couldn't speak, frozen like a stone
What would he say? That he still loves her?
If he will, then why did he leave her alone
Wait this long and made her feel bitter?

"What do you need?", almost like a whisper
She tried really hard not to let him hear her cry
Her heartbeat grew, louder and louder
"I need you", he said, almost not a lie

She ran out of words, stopped breathing for a moment
Her hands turned ice, almost dropped the phone
She wanted to scream, but she knows she can't
She knows she can do this, she survived on her own

She held her breath, the words flowed from her mouth
"You need me? Well, that extremely stupid!
You survived with her, always pushing me out,
Sorry but "us" is now deeply buried."

She slams the phone on the hard table
And started crying, she couldn't just stop
She isn't Snow White, there is no apple
And she isn't Belle with a talking teacup

How dare he call her after everything?
She won't be fooled again, not anymore
Calls her just when he needed something
Their memories now are washed on the shore

'Well, Goodbye, my dear ex lover,
Everything has ended and is finally done
Boy, sorry, you're not my forever,
I guess it's time to find my 'The One' '

Hey! I may not be able to update that much starting today. I have exams and a math contest coming up, and yeah I guess you already know that I'm gonna be stressed for a week.

Plus, we have this festival in my town called "Sinulog Festival" where we get to smear charcoal on everyone's faces, in honor of Senor St. Nino.

You may think, "ew!", but trust me, it's so fun.

You can try to search "Kabankalan Sinulog Festival if you want :)"

Wish me luck on my exams and contest :)
