Analysis of Bittersweet
I was nobody and lost,
Until I met you, I frost.
I change the way I am most,
Then bake and eat a sweet toast.
It was starry and high tide,
We sat in rocks side by side.
Feelin' the breeze as we abide,
Freezing warm feeling inside.
For God knows what I desire,
It's a sin, can't make a lies.
I am an ice for two fire,
For that fire be killed by ice.
I entered the world of jungle,
But there's always a struggle.
You were so sweet and lovable,
Yet pain is uncomputable.
Like I was being crampled,
When seeing you both giggled.
Trying love to be untold,
Making decision to hold.
This love of ours may prosper,
But some will be in anger.
Choose me when time gets harder,
I'll choose you as my lover.
And for my love is so sure,
In this world of unsecure.
I just borrowed you this time,
hard to let go and be mine.
Fate will come for us someday,
Fall for each other every day.
Where love isn't imaginary,
This poem will be our story.
