Chapter 6: Secrets
He had trouble accepting himself until a guy
down the hall saw him one day and made him
light up. The guy would always call out to him
and he would just hideaway. Never let that smile
or let his heart form. He always knew how far
he wanted to go, and being honest with himself
was not an option.
One day he was walking home and the guy stopped
him. Tried asking him for his name, but instead, he just
lied and ran away. The guy caught up to him and
said I know what you're going through. He just laughed
told another lie to avoid that hard smile which would
end with him crying.
His love style was a secret, a truth he felt that would
be more of a haunting than a blessing. He just sat
in his room asking himself would it ever be a possibility
for him to be loved even in secret. He thought he was
never going to be enough to be loved. He thought his
Love Story was nothing but a distant possibility. His
Love Style was always going to be him hiding and
always being afraid of really living.
He was afraid to write a different version of his love
story. He met up with the guy, he wanted to be clear he
was not looking for understanding, not sympathy. He
wanted this pain to be a distant memory. The
next moment they started talking and relating then
he leaned in and kissed him. He was shocked when the
guy kissed back.
He tried to pull away, but that feeling he couldn't stop
Flowing. He felt that smile forming, he felt his heart
Running telling him to stay doesn't move or it never happened.
For a moment his love style became Now or never. Yet he still
felt the need to hide. Then he once again lied and ran away.
But even for that moment, he thought what it would be
like what kind of life could have if he just stays.
His love style became now or never. Not a hunting but a
beautiful blessing a possibility coming into a never breaking
reality. He hides by his bed crying as he said he wasn't ready
to rewrite his love story, as he said he wasn't ready to
embrace this new love style.
He was afraid to write a different version of his love
story, but he knows he's not far away from the truth
he keeps trying to turn into a lie.
Chapter 7: Truth
One day the guy caught him in the library writing
trying to keep a straight face, but the pain only rose
up from the paper to his eyes. His eyes filled up
as he crumbled and cried. He pushed everything
away crawled in the corner and revealed out loud
That truth he kept running away from him, he was able
to say it out loud. Reshape his Love Style even it
meant he would lose his forced smile. Even if it
meant having to admit that for a moment he didn't...
Love himself, It was that moment where he couldn't
breathe. His love style became the living truth as the
guy walked in and held him telling him you have
the strength to love yourself. He tried to pull away,
but he felt right and didn't move for a moment. The
truth he felt would be haunting turned out to be the
blessing what he really needed to be free. He embraced
more than the truth that day.
In his room on his bed, asking as many questions.
Does he have to change? Kept running through his
head and coming from his mouth. The guy looked at
him and laughed as he said your life doesn't change,
but the world does. It embraces you differently...
For a moment everything went away, sat by one
another. For a moment it was all he needed the
truth was a style of freedom. Feeling like a moment
misplaced, but it was a moment of love feels like
everything and the possibilities were becoming
realities.
Love himself, it was the moment where he could
breathe. His Love Style, the living truth as he held
him close and telling him thank you. He had the strength
to love himself fully. He pulled him close and told
him that it felt like a dream. His truth not haunting, but
a blessing. A confession that was nothing but a lesson
to learn and embrace a new love style.
He also found the beginning of his love story.
