#DearFutureLove: Departure

#DearFutureLove,

Let me tell you about my recent heartbreak.

But before I start, I want you to know that I'm sorry. Deeply sorry for not giving the best effort to love myself.

Here's the story...
After so many years of believing no one's gonna see my worth, he then came, making me feel that maybe he is the What If I have been waiting for. I have been wanting and maybe needing for so long.

It was rainbows and butterflies all over my head and body. He made me feel that I was so special, that I deserve all the effort he was giving. My heart was full. That's what I thought.

One day, it all changed. He couldn't wait for me any longer.

Maybe he got tired of understanding my unending dilemmas. He got tired reading between the lines. Maybe it took him so hard to understand that all those "I-care-for-yous" are better than verbally saying I love you.

His departure was as fast as his arrival.

This time, I am deeply wounded. The memories are breaking me, on and on and on. I wanted to fly to him and ask directly what happened to us, but I guess things like these just have to end like that.

Dear, Future Love, sorry for trying it again with someone else. I don't know what else to do. I'm still hoping I'll get the chance to meet you. Until then, xx C.

8 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Be Afraid To Date A Girl Boss

1. She’s decisive.

A girl boss knows what she wants; who wouldn’t want to bring a girl that always has a plan to a date? She’s spontaneous and she doesn’t need to seek an approval with what she’ll do because she knows it’s best for both of you. But don’t get dismayed, she respects you. Girl bosses also want surprises, but in times of uncertainty, there’s no need to compromise. You just have to relax because she already got you. Be always confident that this intelligent woman won’t come up without a well-thought-out plan. So the next time you’ll pop out the question, “Where do you want to eat?”, fear nothing, she already prepared a list.

2. She has standards.

You should feel honored. This girl will never settle for anything less than she knows she deserves. Among the entire qualifications on her list, she chose to date you. She believes in you. And she will never doubt you in whatever decisions you do because she whole-heartedly trusts you. You must be a good catch!

3. She creates her own opportunities.

Well, according to the Girl Boss herself, Sophia Amoruso, a girl boss should know that there is no finish line – fortune favors action. Also according to her, “Race balls-out toward the extraordinary life that you’ve always dreamed of, or still haven’t had time to dream up. And prepare to have a hell of a lot of fun along the way.” Yes, you got it right, dude. That girl is quirky in all the right ways. Once you date her, there will never be sad days. No bad vibes because she can always find the good in all the bad, the greatest favors in all the most unfavorable situations. That girl knows how to develop her weaknesses to strength. She wakes up every day knowing all the odds will be in her favor and if not, she will surely find a way to make it work.

4. She’s passionate.

Passionate girls love harder; once she enters a relationship she will undoubtedly put her all to it. She will make you feel that you’re truly cared for. A poetic-kind-of-love which is all giving and consuming at the same time; but no need to bother, she will never be selfish. She knows you also enjoy hanging out with your friends and family and she respects your space and time the same way she wants you to respect hers.

5. She’s an achiever, a goal digger.

Girl bosses definitely have an incredible work ethic; she won’t get that title if she’s not. So believe me when I tell you that she has the wildest dreams and she’s working hard to get it. You’ll be mesmerized on how well she’s working her ass off for that great success to come her way. This wonderful girl surely includes you in her future plans and will also inspire you to give out your best to achieve whatever you desire for your life. What’s sexier than a girl who has big aspirations in life and can help bring out the best in you?

6. People look up to her.

She has this long list of awards and accomplishments under her name. You will be overwhelmed knowing the fact that she is a big inspiration to others. People aspire to become like her, to be in the same position as to where she is now and to have almost all the achievements she gained. You will be proud on how well she built up her name and how people treat her. She handles stress professionally that even though she’s tired and exhausted she can still manage to flaunt her beautiful smile because she knows people are looking forward to see her. Other men line up to be with her, how amazing that should feel knowing the fact that she’s holding your hands and not theirs?

7. She knows how and what to prioritize.

More than being focused in achieving her goals, a girl boss visualizes what she wants rather than getting distracted by what she doesn’t want. She weighs things fairly. So she’s well aware that you’re one of her best priorities. She’s not that clingy but she will love you dearly. She will give the best efforts for you. You know she’s a good time manager.

8. She’s loyal and serious.

You may have seen how dedicated she is whenever she’s in the office, doing her craft, juggling all those meetings and paper works every day. She might have conversations with a lot of people from all walks of life but always keep in mind that this girl is faithful. She will never make a move that will hurt anyone she loves and she cares for. After all, she never let just anybody into her personal life. This girl is very keen to details and she takes everything seriously. She will always remember all your traits, even the ones that others may not have, and what made her fall in love with you.

I'm Finally Admitting That I Regret Losing You

(cto)

I'M SORRY, IT TOOK ME A YEAR TO REALIZE IT.

I cried myself to sleep last night.

I realized that I still have your favorite song on my playlist. I was on my way to the office when it suddenly played. I remembered how you eagerly introduced that song to me. Telling me that the singer was also one of your favorite artists. We shared a lot in common, from Indie songs and Indie movies, art exhibits and art museums to how we should respect every person's outlook in life.

You became part of my everyday routine. Asking how your day was, how bothered you were when your kid neighbor's kitten was lost. Or how you are handling things being alone and independent. I kept sharing to you my new discovered songs and my favorite movies, in return, you share your favorite songs and will give me your insights about its music videos.

I felt you were like my soul mate, because there are a lot of things that we were compatible of. But we had no labels. I may say that we're part of the "almost-dated" relationships. Almost there but never was. Almost said yes but never did. Almost said those three words but was too afraid to do so. Who's fault was it? I am now admitting it's not yours.

It has been a year since we last had our online conversation. I scrolled back from the very beginning. From the very first time you said, "Hi" and I shared to you my then happy song "Sila" by SUD. I time-travelled back to the very first day I felt so comfortable sharing to you each and every random stuff that's juggling on my mind. You we're always there through my randomness.

I cried myself to sleep last night.

Not just because I'm missing you. But also because I regret losing you. I was the coward one. I was too afraid to try... to give myself a chance. To believe that maybe this time, with you, it will work. That you are the story I was hoping for, the one I wished for. But, no, it will not be possible anymore. You are happy now.

No, I'm not bitter. I'm actually happy for you, because finally, you found someone you could share your adventures with. Someone who will always be there when you need her. A companion. You now have a reason to smile.

You will always be my favorite "What If".

'Til then.

-Cxx

Sa Wakas (Gabbi)

Sa wakas tayo nag-umpisa

Huli ninyong magkasama'y una nating dalawa

Ako ang tauhan sa sumunod na kabanata

Hindi sinadyang pumangalawa sa kuwento ng iba

Sabi ng iba'y mali na tayo'y mag-kasama.

Hindi dapat ako ang yakap mo sa tuwina,

'Di tamang kamay ko ang humahaplos sa'yong mukha.

Kailan nga ba mali na magmahal ng iba?

Paano kung hindi ka na masaya sa kanya?

Di ba't di ka naman titingin sa iba

Kung tunay ngang mahal mo pa siya?

Sa kuwento'ng ito, sino nga ba ang biktima?

Ako raw ang higit na dapat magparaya,

Mali nga bang ako ri'y maging maligaya?

Paano ako na tunay ring nagmamahal?

Sa inyo nga bang dalawa'y ako'y sagabal?

Dapat nga bang ito'y ipaglaban pa?

O umpisa pa lang ng laban ako'y talo na...

Ako'y hahakbang nang papalayo.

Sa wakas, magpaparaya na ang wasak kong puso.

Sa Wakas (Lexi)

Sa Wakas The Musical

Sa wakas tayo nag-umpisa.

Unti-unting binalikan ang mga ala-ala.

Pasulyap na tinanaw ang nakaraan,

Paano nga ba'ng narating ang hangganan?

Sa wakas natin inumpisahan ang kuwento,

Ang istoryang biglang nagkaroon ng dulo.

Inisa-isa ang mga pangangailangang 'di napunan

Pati mga araw ng tunay na pagmamahalan.

Nag-baka-sakaling makita ang pagkakamali

Paano'ng ika'y bigla na lang sa iba nabighani?

Maaari pa nga bang mabuo tayong muli?

O sadya ngang tapos na'ng mga masasayang sandali?

Huli nating dalawa'y una ninyong magkasama.

Marahil nga'y patapos na ang ating kabanata.

Ngunit dapat na nga bang sukuan na lang?

Limutin lahat ng ating pinagsumpaan?

Ang wakas nating dalawa'y narating na.

Pagmamahalan na dulo'y 'di naging maligaya.

Marahil 'di nga sapat na naibigay mo nang lahat.

Sa huli'y para sa kanya 'di pa rin 'to naging sapat.

Mula Sa Prinsesang Nag-iisa

Oo, isa nga ako sa kanila
Mga taong nag-mahal, nasaktan pagkatapos ay nagtayo ng bakuran.
Ninais kong pangmataglang protektahan ang aking sarili
Nilayuan ko ang lahat ng maaaring makapanakit
Umiwas ako sa lahat ng posibilidad na maaring lumago't lumaki
Pinagtataguan ko ang mga pakiramdam na 'di ko na nais pang muling maranasan
Aaminin ko nang sa totoo'y ito lang ang tangi kong gustong maramdaman
Dahil gaya nga ng iyong sinabi, nais ko ring ako'y yakapin
Na ang emosyon ang pinakamagandang regalo sa tao
Na kahit madalas ito ma'y kalakip ang sakit,
Matapos ang aking pagpikit ay may kasiyahang kapalit.

Sabi mo'y hindi mali ang matakot
Na hindi mali ang mag-tayo ng kastilyo na malayo sa mga delubyo
Muli ay aaminin ko'ng matapos ang paglagay ko sa huling bloke
Ng paraisong itinayo ko para sa aking sarili...
Wala ako ni isang giyera'ng naipanalo.
Hindi ko nagawang lumayo sa bagyo.
Nakalimot ako na ang tadhana'y naglalakbay.
Tama ka, hindi ako nanalo noong pinilit ko'ng ilayo ang sarili ko.
Dahil ang pag-layo ay hindi pag-laban.
Na inakala ko mang naroon ang katapangan, bali-baliktarin man ang lahat,
Ang pag-takbo'y kaduwagan.

Kaya't heto na, ako'y muli nang sasama sa'yo
Bababa ako sa kastilyo kong itinayo
Upang makita ang mga ulap sa gitna ng ulan
Sasama ako'ng muli sayo'ng pag-lapit sa papalubog na araw
At aabutin natin ng sabay ang dulo nito, 'di na 'ko muling papasilaw
Hahawak ako sa iyong mga kamay habang tinatahak ang kalsadang tinakbuhan ko noon.
Kakapit ako sa'yo ng mahigpit habang nilalakbay ang tadhanang pilit ko'ng iniwasan.
Babalikan ang mga ala-alang pilit kong kinalimutan
Habang ika'y kayakap at kasabay sa bawat hapunan.
Yayakapin kong muli ang lahat ng sakit nitong kaakibat
Ako'y muling magtitiwalang 'di darating ang araw na 'di na ikaw ang katabi sa pagmulat

Manonood tayo ng mga pelikula
Kahit 'wag na natin higitan sila Popoy at Basha,
Gumawa tayo ng bagong storya'ng tayong dalawa ang mismong bida.
Basahin natin ang lahat ng nais mong libro't lathala.
Sabay nating pagmasdan ang paglubog ng araw sa may dalampasigan,
Hanggang sa paglabas ng mga nagnining-ning na bituin at buwan.
At titingin lamang ako sa'yo, panonoorin kitang mamangha.
Wala nang ibang haharang, maging ulap man o ano pang takip sa kalangitan
Dahil ikaw na mismo ang sumangga at buong tapang na lumaban.
At sana nga, bago pa man mawala ang lahat ng mga ito ay makita ko...
Na wala sa taas ng kastilyo ang pag-ibig.

"Kahit 'wag na natin higitan sila Popoy at Basha,
Gumawa tayo ng bagong storya'ng tayong dalawa ang mismong bida."

Na ika'y nariyan lang na handa akong samahan,
Maging gaano man kahirap ang pagsubok na dumaan,
Hindi ka aalis at basta na lang akong muling iiwan.
Hindi na muli tayong dalawa'y hahantong sa hangganan
Salamat dahil ako'y iyong sinagip
Ika'y muli kong yayakapin, Pag-Ibig.

Muling magmamahal,
Prinsesang Nag-iisa.

Ayoko Sa Ulan

(C)

Ayoko sa ulan, oo, tama, ayoko sa ulan
Mga patak ng luhang mula sa kalangitan
Nagpapahiwatig; nagpapaalala
Mga alaala'ng dapat'y matagal ng wala
Sa isipa'y sumasaglit, bumabalik,
Nagpapaalala; nagpapahiwatig.

Ayoko sa ulan, oo, tama, ayoko sa ulan
Kulog na malakas at dumadagundong
Pinapaalala sakin iyong malambing na bulong,
"Wag mag-alala mahal, sakin ika'y kumapit lang
Wag kang bibitaw, kulog at kidlat,
Panigurado, sakin sila'y walang binatbat."

Ayoko sa ulan, oo, tama, ayoko sa ulan
Lakas nito'y dulot ang putik at baha,
Panahong tayo'y magkasama pa
Ibinabalik saki'ng gunita.
Sa ula'y sabay sa pagtakbo at tampisaw
Hawak iyong kamay, parang isang sayaw.

Ayoko sa ulan, oo, tama, ayoko sa ulan
Saki'ng gunita, tag-ulan ng ako'y iniwan
Walang paalam ika'y biglang lumisan
Pangako mo'ng kailanma'y di bibitawan
Iyo'ng pinakawalan kasabay ng ulan
Ayoko sa ulan, panahong sobrang nasaktan.

-Cxx
