Didn’t I Tell You? ( A Poem To Remember )

By Kaye

You said ’twas okay

You thought it was all right

You imagined everything will be perfect

You envisioned a future’s so bright

You felt you were a Princess

And there was a Prince standing tall

You dreamt to build a kingdom

Out of bricks and stones

You soared high above the sky

In oblivion, you thought you can fly

The wind swept you back and forth

Into the ground you fell, now you’re broke

From within, a voice softly asked

Didn’t I tell you the skies so high, you can’t afford

The height’s so frightening even to look at

And the roaring thunderclaps will turned you deaf and dumb

Didn’t I tell you it’s too risky

To explore the worlds you’ve never been to

Didn’t I tell you to expect the worst?

Didn’t I tell you?

Didn’t I tell you it’s not okay?

To be a foolhardy

Didn’t I tell you that it’s alright?

Not to get everything you want?

But you said you are a dreamer

And fight for everything you want

You said, it’s all worth it

To shed tears for the one you love

But then the tempest turned into storm

And frosty snow into blizzard

Waves dominate the calm blue sea

Corals broken into pieces

Who said life is fairytale

Comes from a deep slumber

Reality is evident around

But you can choose to live with dreams

Now you’re hurt. Now you’re broke

But don’t whine coz it’s the path you chose

You were heedless then and this is the prize

For being selfish….for being smug

Didn’t I tell you?

You can’t twist the turn of tide

Our life story has already been made

Though we don’t have idea how it will end

Don’t try to change the fate

Coz you’ll be in vain if you insist

Go with the flow and accept

You can’t pivot destiny the way you want it

Look at me, the voice whispered

I am your inner self

I am at peace with who I am

Coz I leave everything in HIS hands

I wish you could do the same

Coz I don’t want to see you in pain

If only I can

If only I can

If only your life was written down with pencil

I’d erase it for you

If only ’twas engraved in sand

It’ll be easier to let it go

If only your darkness can be brighten up

Mother sun would have tried enough

If only your tears can be dried

coz I don’t wanna hear you sob

By now, you should have known

You’ve made your moves impulsively

And everything went wrong

From now on, I want you to learn

Don’t dream of what’s beyond

Your hands could hardly reach

Don’t be envious of what others have

And be contented instead
