Have you ever come across someone that made you hold your
breath just cause they seemed too good to be true, and if u
breathe out you fear that this person would fade with your
exhaled breath? The timing, the situations, the personality,
the chemistry is unbelievably wonderful and you just stop
and ask yourself the inevitable question..." what could
possibly go wrong this time..?
For a while, you're enjoying the beautiful surprise "chance"
meeting, and you slightly drop your guard thinking this
friendship is meaningful
and it isnt superficial or masqueraded by fictitious
pretenses... you're just being you, and they're just being
themselves.... Just before you met, you were beginning to
accept the thought that friendship was over rated.. no
friendship carries a life-time warranty... too many "could-
have- been-your friend-but-turned-against-you" friends led
you to believe that failure was inevitable... But hope sowed
a seed... and u see a little shoot and you believe again...
The friendship blooms and blossoms.. you open up a part of
you that you never even knew existed... You blush.. you wish
they could see the effect
they have on you...The words that emanate from them do more
than make you smile.. they make your heart smile...The
laughter... the discussions... sharing thoughts, ideas,
sadness, and even little
nothings... happiness it seems permeates the air whenever
you're communicating with the person...even when they're not
even there. The thought of taking things to the next level
flashes through your
mind... nah.. thats just an illusion.. it'll never happen, u
think..hoping the thought would go away and not haunt your
soul... but it doesnt go away.. in fact it becomes a shared
fantasy between you and your
friend...All the "what ifs?" and "Just suppose.." and all
the "I wish that..."are mirrored sentiments between the two
of you... Where were they before now... and how did you
survive without them if you cant
even handle one day without thinking about them, or
something they said... Maybe you were surviving... but not
like this... This, you feel, is optimal survival...
You toy with the "next-level" idea for a while, but keep it
minimal because you wouldnt dare ruin the friendship by
rushing... so you decide to take it slow You reach to the
point where you wonder if God himself
saw to it that this person entered your life for a specific
purpose... a design foreseen by the Divine creator
himself...They're not perfect, mind you.. For nobody is
perfect ... but you match perfectly...The main physical
barrier is distance... you tell yourself, thats no big
deal.. you're taking it slow anyway, right?
... and you pray and hope that everything stays the same...
the friendship never dwindles... and in fact, it doesnt...
they're in your heart, under your skin, and you cant wait to
feel their presence again... the waiting is almost
unbearble.. Everything is ok. UNTIL.... |
