‘Rocketship’
This is what life is like
When I believe true love exists.
And I will do so forever.
Because she is out there.
And she has been here.
Fate had given mercy enough
To deliver her constancy to me
Just as I had unbrokenly desired.
Although to my grave dismay
I was not prepared to receive her.
Yet I take no misery upon defeat
Within detachment of physical bond.
Nor do I allow my revulsion
To corrupt the grace of her memory.
In absolute truth she remains divine.
She will serve as testimony evermore
As the only dream brazen forward
To challenge the fabric of my reality.
The echo of her beauty resonates eternal
And requires no form of reminiscence.
Her existence in me is shelter and peril.
She has made darkness into daylight.
And in her absence I have seen
Time become torture.
And pain become purpose.
For what then shall I account
The sympathy of fate to provide foretaste
And permit me a mere sample
Of a magnificence beyond my epoch.
I beg mercy shall not live here as cruelty.
I deeply sustain both blessing and curse
In notion that my days survive unfinished.
This is what life is like.
When she has been here.
And I have let her go.
In mercy I know she exists.
In cruelty I know she is gone.
This is my heart’s concern as I yearn for her return.
LOVE iT ♥
love your crew !! 
soo talented nd funny guys! more power!

You are so beautiful. There are no other words to simply describe it. So, with complexity I explain:
Your soul is deep;
I pray and hope that the world knows this,
For your soul overflows with a type of knowledge that the ignorant are none the wiser to.
A broad spectrum colours dance in the current of your heartbeat,
The matter mixing together to form a mysterious, dark cloud of protection.
This cloud, however, somewhat subconsciously thins out to let the light brighten your vulnerability.
You’ve felt love before – don’t let that feeling go.
Out there is a woman, be it the same girl you ponder or another, that shall fulfil your souls’ desires.
I pray that out there, she – your true love – is listening to every emotion you so meaningfully convey to her.
Just be patient with love and keep being you.
You are amazing at expressing your feelings through your dance, music and poetry. I hope that I am lucky enough to meet a man like you, Ryan. When he eventually does cross my path, I will not let him go. I just hope that he hasn’t already been and gone.
Much love, AsiaNerdPride – aka Trisna

If she meant that much to you, and if you haven’t tried to get her back yet then maybe you need to. You’re such a great guy, any girl would be lucky to have you.

The girl whom you were writing about must be someone special that everyone else doesn’t seem to see, but you.

When I hear the music, then I realize that there is a void….
It has been lingering and I’ve ignored it through numbness
I’m not doing the things that I really want to do and ought to…
What am I living for?
If not for music and love…
Then what is it for?
I… escape…I escape from it all..
This is my only means now..
Thank you for bringing me back the stir of emotions…
(as i listen to the ‘not so amazing pianist’)

i think you did the right thing, when you let her go.
“if you truly love someone, you let them go. if they come back to you, they are truly yours…”
this poem is full of regret. i think a litto patience will solve everything.
the rest of the 65% of your unwritten life will spell out her name once again.

In mercy I know she exists.
In cruelty I know she is gone.
Those two lines really got to me. The entire poem is beautiful, but those two are something more… they sum up the feeling of everything that came before, and make it that much more powerful. I could probably sit and philosophise about them for ages, (which i will do tonight anyway, going to bed now… already moved on to discover that I feel not in my heart, but somewhere between that and my stomach xD) but I wont write a long blog post on your poem:P Just know that you have a gift of inspiring people, and I enjoyed reading this:)
Ps: you didn’t hit space before the dots here:P

Ryan,
You’re a very inspiring person. Not just in your writing, but also through your music. I read this and can’t help but wonder if this poem is connected to My Miracle. They would be very good lyrics to that beautiful piece of music. If you want to find her, go for it. She’s probably waiting for you too.
You truly are one of my greatest inspirations and you deserve to find the one who makes you feel higher than the heavens above.
Thank you for sharing this poem, because you’ve given hope to many people, including myself .
