when i look at you now it's as if i don't know you anymore. when i look at myself, i feel the same. times have changed us both. it may be good, but i just hope it made us stronger.
i read about fr. dacanay's speech during the Discovery Camp. it was after reading it that i felt affirmation for the beliefs i had held onto. love is rare to see around. love is not two highschool students holding hands walking at the mall. it is not two college students dating in a posh restaurant. it is not two middle-aged couples meeting up for the first time and dating somewhere in makati. i had known what love is not. i know that what i feel for you is something greater than those i had in the past.
more often time than people suppose it to be, i question myself and my beliefs. even as i have thought for the longest time that i would not settle for a 'common' boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, sometimes i still do question it. but fr.dacanay's speech gave me reassurance that someone out there also thinks the same way. what he said comforts me now when i am full of questions about our love. it is true, love is hard to work for and it takes time. it is extra hard to find love now and keep it because of what we see around. just like professor miranda said, it is easier to settle for what is the common practice that to break new grounds and subject ourselves to pressure while reaching for something great.
i still believe that you are worth the tears and bruises i incurred and are still nursing now. in truth, i believe you are worth even more.
i know for sure that i will never stop being in love with you. if circumstances may separate us, that love will just take a different form. loving you still, but letting you go if you wish. i know that i had asked for another chance, but i want you to think about it now if you still feel the same way about me as you did nine months ago. i want you not only to be happy but more so to grow. if my love weighs you down, i should accept my place far from you.
i love you sheen. it may hurt to know the truth about how you feel, but we are in this together and i need to consider your side. i will always be waiting..
