TOTGA - The One That Got Away !

I wish I could bring back the time

When everything is fine

And your heart beats for only mine

When things are not absurd

And love is preserved

Some days I prayed Some days I preferred

Whispering unto the air to hold on and not fear in

My love, will you not forget?

Seeing only our silhouette

Quivering hands, you hold me tight

Dancing with all our might

I look into our shadow

I couldn’t find the arrow

That pierced our hearts together

Just a glimpse, you disappear

Leaving without a hint of a trace

A feeling I cannot find to cease

You leave me in a muffled maze

an unfamiliar and forbidden place

In Infinite days, I’ve searched for the retreat in the hymn of love

I find the strength for you is not my profound reality

But to be only part of my fantasy

The last teardrop has fallen and the final word has been spoken.

Our love is but an unwritten script.

Only longing to be fulfilled.

Written with a pen and sealed in my heart. The poem I wrote for the person I desired. The words that echo from the depths of my heart. Reading it twice, I feel sentimental for everything that didn't come to life. Euphoric at first, but making me sad throughout.

If not, maybe, I think all of us have someone we adore. We think of that person that much. They make our hearts flatter; they make our day brighter. Their voice echoes in our ears day and night. Their eyes speak of the black holes we were willing to dive in. The ecstasy we feel as we fantasize about them.

They leave a mark on our hearts; we did not mean to let them in, but it happened suddenly.

I bet some of you here have what we called "The one that got away.

Sad as it was, nostalgic, wasn't it?

Well, I have this one person whom I adore that much. He looks pretty, he seems fine, he gives me butterflies. He's everything an ideal man I could barely imagine. I met him when we were in our senior years. He was my rival. The first time I saw him sitting on that bench, I could not get off my eyes on Him. I cannot let go but just gaze at his alluring eyes.

He was this intelligent, tall, handsome guy who caught my attention; though he is my rival, I can't help but admire him.

Years after, we had the chance to talk in chat, and I feel so thrilled upon knowing that the one I admired before is the one I am chatting with. Months have passed, we became friends, we became comfortable with each other, and we tended to talk about how our day went, what our meal for the day was, and even shared day-to-day experiences.

Things are going well with both of us. We've shared connections more than what we expected from one another. We found the genuine care and affection that we long for.

Yet, days have gone by, and things have changed, leaving me paralyzed. In a blink of an eye, the person I thought would stick to me through thick and thin will only be seen in my dreams. The person I thought that I would share my laugh and stories with suddenly becomes a silhouette.

Nostalgic about the things that didn't eventually work out. But one thing I learned in life is that as people come and go, the right one will surely stay. And our happiness is not tied up to those who left. We decide the vibe we make happiness ourselves.

But if fate would allow us to meet again. I'd like to meet you one day, and maybe that one day will turn into our day one again.
