That is all there is. It's not love, and it's not fireworks that last a lifetime. It isn't dedication, it isn't the struggle to retain you, it isn't the foundation that will allow you to trust someone, it isn't the thing that will soothe your tears or put your wants ahead of others. NO.
Lust fades, but love endures. Lust has a tendency to forget. Lust goes blank. Lust has no cognitive process. Love produces songs that suggest it'll catch a grenade for you, while lust lyricizes the beauty of one-night hookups. Love keeps its promises whereas lust makes hollow promises. Love constantly apologizes, whilst lust defends without humility. Love allows you to wonder, whereas passion wants to know what time it is. Lust has two sets of criteria, one for the self and one for the other. Love holds the greatest quality in high regard and fights for it. Love communicates emotions and feelings, while lust sends pleasure and a romantic affair.
Lust feels like love Until it's time to make that SACRIFICE.

Pinky Swear
How do you define love? They said, "age doesn't matter" but why do they keep on saying, "you're too young to be in love!" Why do people keep on waiting for the perfect time? How do you know when the time is perfect? They said "love is blind"? Then how come some people had "love at first sight"? They said, promises are made to be broken..then why on earth would someone create something that's not supposed to last? I too, once believed in love and promises.. Until I realized that love is a carnival.. it gives you a roller coaster ride; the sweetest cotton candy; the fluffiest stuffed toy; the most memorable time of your life.. but at the end of the day, you'll realize that it was all smokes, mirrors and illusions. You've been the clown in your own story; joke's on you.. you've been fooled and laughed at. And as the kid holding the balloon from yesterday's prize.. i'm letting you go.. Pinky swear; sealed with a kiss..Complete
Threads of Tomorrow: Chase
Sometimes, love doesn't arrive loudly. It comes quietly-disguised as a stranger. He wasn't supposed to matter. But somehow, he became her routine, her prayers, her future. They built dreams, shared moments, and believed in a once upon a time that felt unbreakable-until one day, everything stopped. Now she's left with memories she doesn't know how to let go of, and a story that never reached its happily ever after. This is a story about unexpected love, unfinished endings, and the kind of connection that stays-even when the person doesn't. I will never stop chasing you. * * * This is a work of fiction.

I've always been a big fan of yours. You're loved by many, owned by no one. I've always known you were meant to be admired from afar, but never to have... You are a star, I'm an average Jane. You are a prince, I am no princess... It was okay. It was never an issue. I knew what my priorities were. Love is a distraction that I didn't want. I was perfectly happy with my own run of the mill world. But then you came when I was least expecting you to. You gave me affection, unconditional love, and every thing a woman would certainly fall for... I got scared, but you assured me time and again that I had nothing to be afraid of. Said you would never let me down and that I was the last person that you'd want to see hurt. You were there when I fell. You became my world. I became yours... Ours was like a fairy tale. Perfect. We were so in love... So in love that I thought nothing could ever come between us. But then... she happened... She turned our fairy tale into a night mare. In a snap of a finger, the once perfect love became nonexistent. You felt so far even if you were just right beside me... I tried to fight for what we once had...

"Realization comes when you are alone in your room" They said, "actions speak louder than words" but the truth is, there are really actions that can't be acted and words that can't be mouthed because of a certain situation. We know ourselves exactly better than anyone else but are sometimes in denial because of fear of rejections. Loving someone means committing to them; we have to love their flaws, especially their past. We can't love a person just because of their good side because we also have to deal with their dark phase. I was there in your darkest but also is the reason why you were there. What if because I was waiting for the right time to come, I ran out of so many chances? How will I then fight my chance on a person that I know I long loved?Complete

Calibrated Distance
Book 1 TOW3 series -- CALIBRATED DISTANCE [CURRENTLY EDITING] Mira never knew someone had been watching her for years. Akala niya trauma lang ang tinatakasan niya. May silent watcher pala siya... Pero sino nga ba sa kanila si Mr. X? Si Marcus na matagal na niyang gusto? Si Gael na palaging nandiyan pero tila may tinatago? Si Chino na ginagawang biro ang lahat? O si Milo na biglang nawala nang walang paliwanag? This is not an enemies-to-lovers story. No dramatic rescues. No perfect timing. It's surveillance. May mga desisyong hindi na mababawi. May mga pusong natutong magmahal kahit delikado. And some distance were chosen just to keep you safe. Calibrated Distance is about grief that lingers. Resilience that refuses to disappear.

Welcome to Calibrated Distance.Complete![How Destiny Unravels [GxG] [INTERSEX] [TEACHER × STUDENT]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/270861801-256-k114489.jpg)
How Destiny Unravels [GxG] [INTERSEX] [TEACHER × STUDENT]
[TAGLISH/TAGALOG] Love, they say, is a trial by fire, a treacherous journey through the eye of a needle. It demands acceptance of flaws, resilience in the face of pain, and a grim acknowledgment of impermanence. But what if fate orchestrates a cruel dance, bringing two souls together, tearing them apart, and then reuniting them, only to destroy them again? Can love endure such relentless assault? Can one person bear the weight of a relationship seemingly destined for ruin? In the tangled web of their connection, they both row tirelessly, unknowingly navigating the same turbulent sea. Each, consumed by their own perceived suffering, fails to see the other's silent struggle. Trust, once a bedrock, is shattered by the sharp edges of hurtful words and relentless judgment. How can love survive in a world that seems to devalue its very existence? Can they bridge the chasm of their misunderstandings and rediscover the shared strength that lies beneath their individual pain, or will their love succumb to the relentless forces that threaten to tear them apart?Complete
