Array ( [sid] => 164002 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => One Spring, one Summer, and a Fall [time] => 2010-12-30 13:31:45 [hometext] => reposting [bodytext] => The next days, weeks, maybe years will be hard. It has already been.
There are questions that just do not have answers.. hence “I don’t know”.
If I can know the future I would have done things differently.
But I would still shake your hand.. kiss you even.
But I would have not told you many things I did.
I will not reveal myself like I have.
I didn’t know by showing you what I’m carrying…you’l l want to carry it for me.
Even with my sincere gesture: “I’m fine, thank you.”
I believe you. You love intensely. You’re not cold.
because I felt it myself.

Today I stared at your face.. for how long I don’t remember.
now I wish I’ve seen you in the light.
It’s hard to put a face to a voice and keep it in memory when it’s always been dark.
But at least there’s the feeling. Sometimes a touch is enough.

I didn’t want to own you.
Because I know I cant.
I’ve always known my spot.
I know im not the queen.
..princess enslaved. (laughs).


I still look at your way and hope to see you there.
Its really hard to get used to not even seeing your shadow anymore.
I don’t know if there’s truth to your words: you get used to absence easily.
But maybe that’s what it is. I would be lying if I tell you the same.
It definitely requires getting used to, for me. Yet, perhaps, its necessary.

I do not hate you.
As my song goes..its not your fault I played the fool.
You have so much reason to be the way you are.
To an extent I know how that goes. Only, we have different breeding grounds.

In the end, I will take the good memories. .. and pains too.
Life isn’t fair like you said but people can be…if they’d only try.
In the next days, weeks and months I know I won’t do well, and I know you know.
I don’t know how long I will need a cane to keep me from falling.
No, I don’t need condescension.. please.

My heart longs and it jumps at the sight of you.
Funny after all the austerity, and inappropriate labels…
I know when you’re looking at me. I feel even the quickest glance.
And I know, the walls that you put up aren’t even high or strong enough…

I would melt in the crowd again, like I used to do. Become one of the faces. Unnoticeable.
Hoping no one will pay attention. No..not even a name..”trouble”.


Unless the reverberation of my dance, my song, haunts me. (when you put me on a spot light).
Then, they will eat me alive.

I know we are here because you have finally allowed me of what I asked.
Because you followed my petition, even if you do not agree with it.
Thank you. It’s also not easy for me, ‘hal ko.

A spring, one summer, and a fall is better than nothing at all.


P.S.
To the Queen, because there are 3 princes
I didn’t…
I don’t own but I have.

To the 8th color of the rainbow:
Friendship, only, if you remain her king.

God:
Take me back.

Sometimes without wanting knowing you can't yet doing what is needed is the only way to own. The pursuit without intent to own or tame is the only way to actually do it with people like that.

I will pray you find the strength through the days, weeks, and months. I will pray that time does not bleed to years or poison.
