A Poet's Pad

26. There He is

"I'm the almost part,
She's the whole plot."

Hi, I am Caulli,
He is Ross.
I was a friend,
because he told me so.

He said, "Please be with me, Caulli. Let's be friends, shall we?"
I answered him, "Hi Ross. It is fine with me."

I was his friend,
because he told me so.
So when he told me that he love me,
I said no.

"Ross, we should be friends right?"

"Friends only?"

"Just friends."

"But I like you, Caulli."

I responded an, "I am sorry."

I was his friend,
because he told me so.
So when he told me that he love me,
I said no.
He told it twice,
I still said no
because there is Sunny,
and she loves Ross too....
the way I do.

"Sunny, do you still like Ross?"

"Ofcourse, Caulli. He always have a special spot in my heart... because..." she smiled at me, "Those 5 years that we've been together isn't a joke."

Then I went to him,
"Ross do you still want Sunny?"

"I told you, I like you Caulli, didn't I?"

"But you love her, didn't you?"

I was his friend,
because he told me so,
So when he told me that he love me,
I said no.
He told it twice,
I still said no.
because there is Sunny,
and she loves Ross too...

The way I do
The only difference is
I'm the only one who knew.

I always say no
Because I saw
that he still loves her
I have to let go

He just liked me
as I look like her
Twins in fate, that's all I can bear
because we share the same face,
and a person to love
Yeah, twins by blood
I need to stay apart
I love them both,
Though they forgot.

Yeah. I'm the almost part,
and she's the whole plot.

We are completely different,
She loves him.
I love him.
He loves her, more than I.

I was there and there he is.

I was there, pretending that I'm fine
because there he is, so happy with her time.

I was there, pretending that it was fine,
because there he is, I imagined him as mine.

I was there, but she is here
---and there he is, with her now.
