Just Like The Movies
Love isn't like the movies
If it was you would've realised I was
The One
For you and we'd all be living
Happily Ever After
by now
Love isn't like the movies
If it was you would've noticed all
My Smiles
And have fallen secretly
In Love
With me too, but be
Too Nervous
To act on it
Love isn't like the movies
Not everyone has a
Best Friend
They can fall for
And not everyone is secretly
Beautiful
But hidden under
'Ugly'
Glasses, braces or clothes
Love isn't like the movies
Not everyone's
Lies and Deceit
Can be so easily forgiven overnight
Not all problems can be solved with an
"I Love You"
And sealed with a Promise and a
Perfect First Kiss
Love isn't like the movies
I'm no
Princess
and my
Prince Charming
Isn't staring me right in the face
While I pursue someone who
Isn't Worth My Time
Love isn't like the movies
Because if it was you would read this
And chase me as I speed away in a
Yellow Taxi
To tell me I was wrong
That you love me
ForeverAnd that love is
Just Like The Movies
-Maryanne
I really like this poem. everything the poet says is so true. it makes me realise that just about every Hollywood movie we watch is so cliched, predictable and unrealistic. and yet we love them so much. we watch the same happy endings all the time, in awe, convinced that it's so romantic. maybe it's because we all hope that our lives were just like in the movies. where happy endings are definite. and those we truly love will definitely love us back. where life is PERFECT. why, oh why, is the real world so complicated?
anyways, i have been feeling so sick for the whole of yesterday. and i'm finally feeling wayy better today. there's so much homework still untouched. would love to start on them but too lazy lahh. haha. maybe later. maybe. hehe. well, three more days of ISP. i can't wait for it to be over. haha. but then, i still have st john day rehearsal and amath lessons. haish. i still need a break.
enough said. ciao.
i haven't seen him in awhile.
and i miss him.
he's so cute.
i wish i knew him better.
if only i had the guts to talk to him...
