lovesick. thats what i am. so here i am again, sewing a love story and a song. inspired by JRA’s song, By Chance (You and I) of which giiimo made me fall in love with; i practically raped the play button… teehee!
my name is Ennaira and i am sick and tired of the go-abouts of love. i have been in and out of relationships that’s either too short for it was lame or too long because i thought there’s no way out. i have been single for two years now and WAS trying my luck in love from time to time. obviously, i have been good at failing it.
until one day…
“Hi, boy you just caught my eye.
I thought I should give it a try,
and get your name,
and your number.
Go grab some lunch
and eat some cucumbers…”
i met Godfrey. a typical boy next door. nice, charming, and sweet. he is fun to talk to. very sensible and smart. i found him cute and adorable. i developed a crush on him. the only glitch is that he has a girlfriend.
uh ohh…
“WHY, DID I SAY THAT?
I don’t know why.
But you’re smilin’
and it’s something I like on your face, yeah it suits you.
Boy, we connect like we have bluetooth…”
we often talk, then came one day when the girlfriend went to me and asked me to stop talking to her boyfriend like a slap in the face. i felt sad but i tried. i told Godfrey about it and said i’d abide. he told me i need not to, for we’re not doing anything wrong. and that we’re just friends — OUCH! that slapped me harder. that woke me up. so, we still text. but only when he send me SMS first. i’d just reply but never start a conversation unless he does.
but…
“I don’t know why
I’m drawn to you
Could you be the other one so we’d equal two?
And this is all based on a lucky chance
that you would
rather add than subtract.”
i know i can’t get away with it. i like him. and somehow i feel he does too. its just a gut-feel yet its a strong one. that was what made me scared. i am falling for someone who is committed and i don’t like it. so i chose to stay a step behind.
then…
“Hey, How’ve you been?
I know that it’s been awhile.
Are you tired ’cause
you’ve been on my mind
runnin’ thousand and thousands of miles?
Sorry, I know that line’s outta style.
But you,
You look so beautiful
on this starry night.
Loving the way the moonlight
catches your eyes
and your smile,
I’m captivated.
Your beauty is timeless, never outdated…”
after a little too long, we’ve met again. he’s single, i’m hating. we talked for hours like before… i felt good and he did too. we acted like teenagers living their dream, pretending not getting kilig factors with what each other say when in fact, its as if we like to drool over it. as days passed by, we slowly gave in.
and so its 11.20.2011…
“You and I
could be like
Sonny and Cher,
Honey and bears.
You and I
could be like
Aladdin and Jasmine.
Lets make it happen…”
we became US! the love paved ways. our sacrifices paid off and we are working things out to see us grow old and grow up together… we are making things happen!
like…
“Babe,
It’s been 5 years
since that special day,
when I asked you
on our first date.
I guess it’s safe to say…
You and I
ARE BETTER
than Sonny and Cher,
Honey and bears.
You and I
ARE BETTER
than Aladdin and Jasmine
WE’VE MADE IT HAPPEN!”
i am just hoping i can make him the happiest, if not the luckiest guy on earth
until he’ll be able to say…
“Let me say,
You look so beautiful
on our wedding day…”
the end
***ps: you know who you are, this is for you.
