All Of The Stars
And yet, I still thank you for the numbered days which came unknown to you. All of the stars form the galaxy we made... through a love that was so pure and innocent and vulnerable... and just too painful. But I still want to tell you that I love you.
Thank you.
Thank you for holding my hand when I thought I didn't have them. Thank you for making me see even though I thought I was blind. Thank you for letting me learn how to stumble and fall for someone's quirks. Thank you for letting me goof off. Thank you for letting me realize that I should love myself. Thank you for the ocean of sadness... and in return, for teaching me how to swim. With you and on my own.
And... thank you. For eradicating the numbness. Thank you for letting me feel. For the pain. I can feel it.
But it's better than nothing, right?
You taught me how to swim...
I can't see you now. Maybe you're already at the shore. But I'm still here. I've drowned a thousand times before. I'm now on my own. I don't want you to leave but I know you can't survive without the boat.
I'll keep on swimming... thank you.
Thank you so damn much.
For the stars...
For all the little things...
And for everything else.
I love you.

{inspired by} ed sheeran's song. may nakita akong comment 'dun sa YT. it was about someone who had cancer. tapos, boom. this was born! hahahaha at sa mga assuming, hindi nga 'to about sa kanya. haynaku. move on kayo mga friend! kayo nalang 'yung hindi naka-move on. also, i thought of making a one-shot story with this kind of theme. may story ako na ganito rin yung theme. it's entitled 'ikaw.' pero warning nalang, super mushy at corny at drama at ewan. wag nalang.
just keep swimming! finding nemo!
