Stuck

Maybe I learned my lesson. But maybe I didn't. I've known to myself that this leads to nothing. But then, I can't help it. I'm too shallow. I'm too deep. I've thrown everything and leave a piece to keep. Is this wrong? But it feels right. There's a thin line between what won't and what might.

It's been a long while and I still can’t figure out how does one heart comes pounding, and raising, and skipping, and crushing down all at the same time. How can one person’s smile bring pain of longing to have, and wanting to keep, and waiting to be, and erase all of them at once? What should I do? Well, do I have a choice? I’m always in between stop and go. I’m always too scared to start and too scared to let go.

I'm scared of losing you. Wait, let me correct that. I'm scared of being away from you. I'm not exactly losing you because from the start, I know I can't have you. Especially now, I'm stuck. I'm stuck somewhere new, yet, familiar.

Don't be mistaken. I'm not sad, not at all, not a bit. I am actually happy despite everyone else's point of view. Yes, I know that when you find out what I'm saying, I would look really helpless and pathetic but then who cares? I am happy with this. I am happy anywhere as long as it is with you.

I am stuck there. I can't help my feet from pointing at your direction. I don't know how to say no because no matter what yes means, it'll make you happy and I'll be happy too. I don't know. I think being hopeful and hopeless just differ on how you see it.

Do you know the feeling when you dream at night about falling from somewhere really high and wake up with it? That is exactly how I feel whenever I think about you. I find myself catching for breath but try to slow it down so no one would notice.

I really really really like you. And I don't know how to stop because I don't want to. And again, I'm not asking anything from you. Just stay where you are, if not, ask me to go with you. No, I won't make a move because I think that's what you wish. I just want to be stuck with you.

Throwback Status

Kunwari makata. Pagbasa ko ngayon katawa na. mga istatus nung Mayo 2013 (at kaunting Abril at Marso). Ano bang meron nung taon na yun? Ano nga ba? Gusto ko pa bang balikan? (Honestly di ko maalala exactly ano pinagdadaanan ko ng mga oras na iyon. or alam ko pala dinedeny ko lang. Ang ingay ko sa FB hindi ko pa nirecord lahat. baka bored lang)

haha kahit naman sabihin kong bibitaw na ako di ko naman talaga kayang gawin hanggat di tapos. kahit sabihin ko nang ayaw ko na, di naman ako titigil. kahit sinasabi kong bahala na, ang totoo talaga'y natatakot ako at di ko kayang pabayaan. hahahahha. sa loob loob ko pipilitin at pipilitin ko pa din kahit nakakapagod na haha. sa isip ko, kaya pa yan, kahit maliit na percentage na pwedeng mangyari, at least may percentage sa ganoong possibilty. kaya pa yan! kaya pa to! kahit mahirap T_T

Being blind is no different from being not, if you refuse to peek.
Being deaf is no different from being not, if you refuse to hear.
Being mute is no different from being not, if you refuse to speak.
You can be as strong as you think, but ignorance will always make you weak.

Where do you go, when you have nowhere to go?
Are these secrets to keep, or feelings to show?
Will you accept, or will you let it be thrown?
Should you hold tighter, or should you just let go?

Kanina.
Habang naglalakad ako patungong tindahan ng milk tea sa area 2 ng mag-isa. May lumapit sa aking manong.
Manong: UP student ka?
Ako: *tumango na lamang habang medyo natakot*
Manong: Saan ka papunta?
Ako: *shrug shoulders kasi lalong natakot*
Manong: Pagpapalain ka
Ako: *Lumiko na ng daan*
Manong: Pagpapalain ka. Pagpapalain ka ng Diyos. Pagpapalain ka. *repeat till fade*
Hmmm. O_O

After 2 PM

Here I am, body's immovable, mind's sailing. Then there they are, things that I must do, must have been doing and must have done. I don't really know where to start or if I wanted to. It's the hardest part of doing something, starting. If only you could end something without starting.

It's okay. It's the peak of heat within this time of the day. And you can't blame me. I have suffered a lot lately, physically, mentally, socially, I think in any aspect of my being. I don't think it would be much of a sin to crave for a little bit of escape to the real world. Better yet, I would definitely regret doing this.

I really think I needed this. Oh well. Let life happen.
