one realization

happened without a fuss

that her wish is nothing but

a hopeless cause.



one second

they're eyes met again

but now the girl

looked away in pain.



one mistake

and now drowning in misery

why was she punished

for wishing some fantasy?



one promise

she broke once more,

that she'd never look at this man again

like a darling paramour.



one silent night

in a rusty old jeepney

are two lonely passengers

sitting knee to knee.



one has finally slept

the other is trying to break free,

from a cage of one unrequited love that

keeps on resurfacing in her memory.
