Dear Heart, Letters.

Entry #6

Dear... My Downfall,

You’re an unknown man who suddenly passed by,

you stole my young eyes and glued it to you.

you stands like the great warrior Achilles,

as beautiful as Phoebus Apollo.

I can’t help it but to smile whenever those sweet little memories of how my spiceless peaceful life turned upside down as you, a nameless man, stole my innocent eyes and young heart, flashed back to my memories with a sweet melody of my heartbeats. The way our eyes met for that split-second made my neurons be full of your image and let my soul fall under your spell. I can’t explain how captivated I was by your mere presence. You’re not a campus heartthrob but there’s something beyond your flesh that made my eyes sees you as the most handsome man I’ve ever seen. Who would have thought that my bad luck on that gloomy day will lead me to know your existence?

Rhythmic drums of my heart sounds louder,

every time you step your feet towards my soul.

You’re voice is like melody to my ears,

which starts the blooming of our history.

Do you still remember how desperate I was just to see you again? It was a frightening moment for a fifteen-year-old girl who hasn’t experienced to go crazy for a stranger. I was afraid because these strange feelings slowly invaded me deep down. But I chose to be brave. Thanks to our mutual friend who became our bridge for my dreamed love story. The moment that you talked to me made my heart jump out of my chest. You have the sweetest voice that creates music in my ears. You talked to me like we’re friends and that made me comfortable to be with you. I can’t hide my smile when you asked for my number. I know that those 11-digit numbers will be our key for our book of love. By then, I had known how it feels, to have butterflies in my stomach.

Hundreds of days of our togetherness,

you opened your heart for a sweet confession.

To love and to be loved feels so perfect.

Thanks to Cupid and his bow and arrow.

My admiration for you grew deeper and deeper as time passes by. Do you know how excited I was to hear the bell and be dismissed on class just to see you again? It’s been four months that time since we became friends. ‘Bhes’ that name that you gave to me sounds like a sweet endearment that tingles my young heart. That night marks the most memorable night of my life when you finally asked for my heart. I was dumbfounded. My tongue was tied. I am savouring the moment...the moment that I’ve been waiting for. The stars and the moon were the witness of my sweet and lovely ‘yes’.To love and to be loved feels so perfect. Others might say that it’s just a puppy love, but I know deep in my heart that what I feel for you is genuine and not just a product of admiration and attachment. That was the loveliest Valentine Day because I gave you my heart with a promise that you’ll take good care of it and love it more and more each day, likewise for your heart to me. Love is truly in the air, I can feel that Cupid is dancing for us.

Even we’re the sweetest couple ever lived,

our expiration came and broke us apart.

Love can’t truly be seen under sunlight,

but only during the stormy night.
