It's Just a Spoon

It's just a spoon, they said.
No reason to cry about that.
It's just a spoon.

But it really wasn't just a spoon.
It was more than that.
It was those unspoken words,
Those undone actions

Those glares directed my way,
Words that can't be taken back,
Things that went astray.

You were supposed to be my rock, my ally,
You were supposed to protect me from all the evil in this world.
The girls who would lead me by,
The boys who would break my heart.

But in the end, you broke mine.

It's just a spoon, they said.
No reason to cry about that.
But it wasn't just a spoon to me,
It was the last straw.

This is My Year

2013.

I'm turning sixteen this year.

Prom is this year.

I'm going to be a senior this year.

I'm going to be taking the Ateneo College Entrance Test this year. (along with the UPCAT)


This is going to be my year. I can feel it. It's time to learn from our past experiences and turn them into better memories.

2013, I'm ready for you.
