Sometimes You Just Know



I start my day thinking and waiting if it will be different from previous

days. But a few minutes into it and I realize it has been the same as it was

since that seemingly ordinary July day. That day when, amidst my boring life,

he came to bring the sunshine in. I have not been the same since. I don't know what

it is that he has that makes me feel the way I do. And I can't pinpoint what

endeared him to me not because he is devoid of something good to show. On the

contrary, he is a gem with many beautiful sides that my heart can't seem to tell for

sure which reeled it right in.

It is amazing how in his busy world with friends, he manages to still

somehow paint my world with different colors. In every smile. In every word.

When the sun peeks through the clouds, a vision of him comes right through

like a splash of
rainbow colors. When the rain falls on my parade, he gently

pulls me close to him and tells me it is alright to just sit for a while.

He reminds me that I don't have to always apologize when I just need to

take a break for awhile in order to regain the strength I need.

Sometimes, though, he and the circumstances surrounding us are the reasons

why I cry.Questions come to me and there seems to be no answer.Neither

one of us knows the answer to the whys. It is when it hurts knowing I

want to understand with what I know, small they maybe, and feeling

inadequate in trying to do so. I get this feeling like it is taking me

awhile to grow into the bond we have. And at times I feel like giving

up for I feel I am weaving sadness and doubt into the friendship we

have, something I absolutely do not want for it. But it is proving

to be a worse idea to give up on something that has made a meaning of

itself. What we have already has a life of its own.


I can be jealous, frustrated, disappointed in him and in me. There are days when

he seems to be spaced out that I cannot seem to get through him and speaking to

myself seems to be a better idea. But he snaps out of whatever reverie he is in

after a short while and he comes back better ( I think) and with just the littlest

sign, if any of distraught. Things may not be already fixed but he manages to come

back. It is there again, that candid sweetmess reminding me that he hasn't really

left, he just took a break.

Of course, it is not always easy for me to accept when he is gone for days. I worry about him

and it bothers me that no matter how I express my concern for him, he seems to be

bent in staying in that corner he is in. But day by day I am beginning to accept and

understand him.I don't take it personally anymore, at least not as much as before.

The way I see it, he is the type of guy that you either hate or love. And there is

no way I am hating this guy.

I just tell myself I have my own life to live, own tasks to face, own friends and

family to spend time with. I try to let him feel that I am not into him that much. I

make him feel that we can be in one place at the same time and I won't even be

affected by his presence at all. I let him see that my world is bigger than what I

feel for him. It should be the case anyway. I couldn't let myself be that in love

with someone that I'll make him bigger than my life. Better get that into my head.

But oftentimes, I just cannot kid myself. I know for a fact I carry this hope in me

that when he sits down for a moment I will cross his mind and he'll see someone who

has something going on for her. Who is capable of doing so many things...just as how

I see him. That is why I am trying to become better. He inspires me. I don't know

how he does it and I hope this doesn't get into his head but he has managed to be

special enough for me to see him as a part of my life. He may not be bigger than my

life but he brings something good in it anyway and he is already a part of it. No

ifs and buts about it.


Tomorrow is another day to face. I don't have a perfect clue as to what it will be like

except for one thing...that I love him. I don't regret orfeel bad that I already

know this for sure because it is like having a glimpse of the first day of the rest

of my life. I feel in my heart I will always be loving him and that's where it

becomes beautiful for me. The rest will just be like a high but leveled plateu. I

can get married someday, be a millionaire, be fulfilled to the core. But he will

always be the highest point of it all. Time may come when what I feel may evolve

into a different kind than the love I have for him right now but it will never be

less special. And I won't grow tired of him because the more I love him the more I

discover what I am good at and what I can improve on. And the more I get to know and

see him too. I believe that each day he will be bringing with him a different color

to brighten my life. He will always have a new and yet pleasantly familar way of

holding my heart in his hands. Everyday a different charm in his smile. Always

having a balance of sweetness and candor that renews itself everyday. He doesn't

even have to try. I will be falling in love with him all over again as the sun

shines over the horizon... just like the first time. And someday, even if poetry

refuses to rhyme and even if my mind begins looking for a reason that my heart does

not need, I will still love him.
