Steady Love II

Ato: Alright so lemme tell you the truth right from the start. Apparently, I've reached that stage in my life were beating around the bush is simply a waste of time. Cause I've had this experiences where I've had this "back and forth" thing with someone, when in our heads we knew the path we would end up eventually. You may decide to delay the "decision making process", but you would still evetually get to that "decision making junction" anyway. No matter how long you decide to hold unto each other. Deep down within you, you can always tell the outcome. Mostly, we choose to ignore our inner voice and enjoy the moment while it last. Your ideology may be different per your experiences too. Truly, we all see life from different perspectives per our experiences. So you would meet people who have these funny ideologies about life. Then you begin to wonder if we are all living in this same world. Yes we are, the only thing that separate me from you, is our experiences. And these experiences sumed up contribute to whom we became. The whole reason behind this long speech is because my free ride home, left me behind today. Just then that popular quote,"We came alone and we would leave alone", dawned on me. Suddenly, I fell into a trance and begun to overthink things. Before I realized, I had texted this person: hi. Then I begun to understand a whole lot of things I thought was senseless. I begun to understand things better from a different angle entirely. I begun nodding as I was walking, unknowingly I was nodding to this cute girl walking towards my direction. She smiled and nodded back at me. There and then, a voice echoed in my head saying, "Waaa look, and you are stressing over a girl who doesn't like you". So ma buddy relax, in this life, your time to blow up go come.

Steady Love

Vibes: I came across his picture on my phone, and tears filled my eyes. I tried really hard not to blink, cause I knew tears will be dripping down if I lose guard. I bet you can tell how deep we were into each other. We came a long way, went through it all; crossed bridges, climbed hedges, moved through foggy, stormy weather together. Unfortunately, all that couldn't sustain us. Sometimes, I go so deep into my thought, descending deep down to moments we shared even on his birthday. When we would watch a documentary together, share ideas and thoughts. Yet we sucked dry the affection we had for each other. Another came into the picture just at the right time when we needed a different kind of experience. The other knew just what to say, how to manage, take care, control affairs. I witnessed my better half drifting away slowly, yet every measure I put in place backfired right in my face. "There is nothing as painful as that feeling; watching the one you love slipping into the arms of another while everything you try pushes her further away the more". Anything I tried made me look stupid, cause my newly discovered rival did everything right and beautiful. Shockingly, every step my rival took appeared to be spot on. And all I had left were shuttered memories filled with pain. Thank God I survived this too. In deed, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I've learnt a lot of things I couldn't as a couple. I have improved and worked on myself so much being single. Singleness gave me a chance to patch up most of the loop holes I had left bare. Now I am ready to fall in love again.
