17/F i'd like to believe i'd be happy someday
i don't know when was the time i realized i have fallen in love, i have no idea when was the first time i told you those three magic words, and since then, i never felt a slightest hint from the hands of fate, that we would ever come to this. but what i do know is that, in each passing day, my heart only beats louder for you; that those three magic words grow more magical as it escape our lips; and that as days, weeks, months and years pass us by, i will forever be grateful that the universe graciously led us to each other's arms.

three magic words
a man out of his wits, hopeless, what a pity he's become another casualty. loved ones, betrayed him: left to oblivion, only girl she ever loved, ran away with another man. all sense has left him, they say. but he's listening to all the bickering. hoping one day, a voice so familiar, he'll hear, the sun rising after a complete darkness.

there is
a question troubles, island’s peace is lost, “am i who i am?” eager land inquires. disturbed, the once serene and calm water, enraged waves sent off, crashing onto shore. the answer that you seek i cannot speak, straightforward answers, never meant to please. a storm threatens a downpour of yes, no, confusion flooded, train of thought submerged. surveying islands, bird’s eye takes the view, clouds fleet along, marveling at it all: a lake, a river, waterfalls of hope, a hill, a valley, mountains of regret, grown with experience, plants and trees stand, learning through challenges, animals flock. “what an amazing sight!” wind blows soft breeze, “what an amazing mind!” whistles the bird. land and water, both finally, calmed down, resolves to address the troubling question: “am i who i am?” echoes the island. wind and ocean answers in unison: “***a tiny plot of land, blessed by the gods, but with one’s hands, an island has emerged***."

the island
how many? how many hearts have you broken? how many people have you left unmended? how many innocent people have you torn apart? how much? how much pain have you caused? how much tear has been shed? how much trust has been crushed? how? how can you sleep at night, knowing you've hurt more than a fly? how can you eat a lot, knowing you made someone lose their appetite? how can you still stand still, knowing you never bothered catching  anyone who fall? how...    how could you?

How...
"Oh, how I love the rain," she mutters to herself, feeling the rain trickle from her face down to her feet. Most people loves the sun, she prefers the clouds. She loves the rain, for it keeps her sane. It keeps her safe, and serves as her escape.

Rain.
through the dark, you guided me through the drought, you strengthen me through the fall, you were there to catch me through it all, through it all through the waves, you surfed with me through the wind, you flew with me all the distance, you traveled it all through it all, through it all

Through it all.
I've been ready to wrap my arms around you, but I saw you wrap yours around someone else. I've been willing to kiss your tears away, but you chose to let it flow as you watch her walk away. I've been loving you and watching you from afar, but instead, you decided to love her like how I love you. Unconditional and hopeless.

feelings left unsaid.
Pain?      I got so used to it, it seemed like a normal thing to me.      I became so obsessed with it, I can't stop yearning for more. Pain is such an inexplicable feeling leaving me breathless and desiring for more.

Pain...
I cry, I try. I feel, I heal. I stood, I could. I fly, so very high.

Hope
I took the ride just for a thrill, I didn’t know this is what I would feel. I pushed myself to stand up and fight, but I fell on the ground filled with fright. Filled with hope, I took the chance, smiled and hoped for a better dance. But you pushed me away like I was trash, I’m back down the ground with just one flush.
