The Story of You & Me

the island and the captain part 2

Since the day the captain returned,
the island no longer mourned,
though she knew the love she has for the captain is way off the line,
she did try her best to forget the feelings and decline,
but I guess love moves in mysterious ways,
because the more she ceases it, the more it conveys,

Until one day, she decides to lower her pride.
With these thoughts inside her head,
she talked in front of the mirror and said,
"This night, I will make things right. I know it sounds crazy because after this everything will be hazy. But I know I am ready because unsaid things are much deadly."

With all the courage the island gathered,
She asked the captain if they can have a small talk without a stutter,
They go to the heart of the island where they first met, 
But suddenly the island had a regret,
Before she could run away and retreat,
she dared to speak for her feat,
at least she didn't claim her defeat.

With all the left bravery, the island said,
"The moment I saw your ship coming my way, I knew you're the one who would take my breath away. I was singing my sad melody, hoping someone might notice me. And there you were, the person who heard my unnoticed tune. I speak on behalf of my heart, for my mind is blown apart. Loving you was never part of my proposition, but hey, I would love to hear your suggestion. I am taking my risks in this game called love and do the best I can to be tough. You are unique even though you doubted yourself many times. You are quite an amazing man who doesn't want to have lemons than limes. I hope my words are clear enough to you."

the captain's eyes got wider and wider;
as he thought of the islands words and finally decipher;
with tears in their eyes, they stare at each other;
then in an instant, the island knew the answer;
the tears on the captain's face were not of joy;
it was more like of a Foy;
the island accepted her defeat;
for the unrequited love, she needs to discrete;
for the very last time they hugged each other,
and the words of the captain made her shudder;

"I loved you since the day I met you, but I guess there will never be a happy ever after. You see my boat happened to cross into a great storm the moment your melody crossed to my bourne. I never made it through that storm but, my soul still wants to search for its long kindred soul. I would love to stay here with you, but we both know I don't belong to your world anymore. I am delighted for I was able to know you even just for a while. But you know we can destroy the universal time balance if I stay with you even just for a while. Those days that I suddenly vanish, was the time I pleaded to the Gods to give me one more chance to be with you before I will be banish, and they gave me a shortcut time until the day I will be able to tell you who I really am. My love, perhaps in another life, our worlds would intertwine. I wish you could recognize me, and may we resume the love tale that the cosmos has denied to us and finally be with me. Farewell, mon cheri."

and that was the last time i heard the voice of my captain,
this is a story of how I met and got separated by the person I kept on praying to be my destined.
Am I angry? No.
Am I sad? Definitely Yes!
Did I curse the universe for this fate? No.

Because I will never be more thankful for the short opportunity the universe had given to us to be with my CAPTAIN and I would still choose to be his captive. I will always, always, love him wherever the cosmo will take me.
