PUSH AND PULL

I was supposed to write this to you but I 'd rather not because you might find this in the wrong context. More than three months, these has been very tough for both of us. We're hanging on something that we don't even know if it still exist. Partly, I should be blamed on this because I did not ask, I just let everything fell into place thinking that somehow you will be courageous enough to figure out what's wrong and what should be done to fix it. But for three months, I can't remember a single instance wherein you bothered to reach out.

There were few exchanged of messages and status likes on Facebook but still everything is a blur. Often times it crossed my mind to talk to you and face this head on but what's holding me back is the thought that "For once, prove to me that I'm worthy to keep". That when I turn my back on you, you will cling and ask me back. Sadly, you didn't do anything. And it pains me thinking that you didn't try nor ask anything. At least, just for the record or just to make me feel good.

You told me you had your tattoo and it's my name on your back. For some, it was sweet but not for me. You don't have to hurt yourself or put anything permanent on your body just to please me. What I'm waiting is for an apology. Sincere apology on all the things that you did which hurt my feelings and self esteem too badly.

All along, I thought I'm fine. Or perhaps, trying to be Ok but lately, I have this roller coaster of emotions. I'm in a push and pull state of mind. Weighing things so I will not get hurt too bad. How I love to talk to you personally, how I love to see you again and settle all the unanswered questions.  I don't know if you're feeling the same way but I'm wondering who will raise the white flag. Who will stand up and put everything in the right perspective?

Are we giving each other time? Time to breath? Time to think things over? Or are we just waiting for the feeling to fade and for the relationship to take its natural death? I'm torn between these questions. My logic cannot figured it out. I want a clear answer so I will know what to do, so I can take the next step and course of action.

More than 5 years...  it's bitter sweet! Full of good memories to cling to. And full of pain as well. Those years thought me a lot of things, about Life, sacrifice and loving unconditionally. And for that, I will forever be grateful. If not for you, I will not discover that I'm capable of loving someone so badly.  So bad that I'm willing to sacrifice myself just to be with you. So bad that I keep on forgetting all your lies and just go on. So bad that despite all the betrayal , I cannot hate you and still want to see you.

It is unfair to ask if you're feeling the same thing. But what I'm hoping is you realize that despite your shortcomings, there is someone beside your parents who can accept you as you are. That sometime in your life, someone treated you so special and love you unconditionally not because you are good but because you are you. Let these pictures be our reminder of our LIFE AND LOVE TOGETHER. Until we see again...
