Until He's Mine

"I love you, Artemis. I fvcking love you, damn it!"

I closed my eyes and wished that it was all just a bad dream and that everything will be okay when I wake up. But I guess, we can only hope for so much.

'Cause as soon as I opened my eyes, I could still see him crying, begging. Begging for me to say those words he wanted to hear.

But, I can't.

My heart can't take it anymore. I shook his cold hands holding mine and started to walk again to my car but I was stopped by a pair of strong arms circling my waist. I could still hear his sobs even though the rain was so heavy.

"Please, don't leave me. I'll do anything, just stay, please!"

"I'm sorry", and with a heavy heart, I left him in the rain.

I didn't look back dahil alam ko sa sarili ko na kapag lumingon ako hindi ko na mapipigilan ang sarili kong yakapin siya. And so I drove off and left.

Our love was too destructive, too toxic and too wild.

Too forbidden.
