I Knew I Won't Be There
Honeylyn L. Casquijo's I Knew I Won't Be There will inspire every reader to be determined in life no matter what the future holds.
I held the stars
I reached the moon
they're on my hand
but not for long.
I climbed the mountain
I heard its reverberations
I drunk the fountain
to quench my thirsty emotions.
Nothing compares
to the abyss where I lay
the enigma I saw in its shadow
was just a lonely beast hiding in gloom.
I dreamt of pleasure
I tried to have a good time
but I've been there just for once
and I knew I won't be there again.
