She remembered, she even counted
“Five times, he said it five times”
She remembered the first and second
It was when he was kissing her
In between the passionate scene
He wisphered the words twice
As for the third time,
When they were eating together
“Tatlong piraso para sayo kasi mahal kita
(3 pieces for you because I love you)”
She just smiled at him
And as for the fourth and fifth
It was when they were making love
In between the amorous moments
“I love you, I love you” he told her
Five times, he said it five times
He said the magic words
It was the magic word
That changed her world
She finally believed it
She finally accepted it
But she didn’t told him
She kept it to herself
She was afraid to say the words
She was afraid of the consequences
She waited again for him to say it
“I love you too” she even practiced
But that time never came
He never said it, he never said it again
What happened?
She asked herself
Was it too late to say
“I love you too”?
The magic word
Has lost its power
Has lost its meaning
Has lost its purpose
Who's to blame?
The one who answered late
Or the one that seems insincere?
