Trying… Dying…

I’ll be lying to myself if i said i don’t care
but I’m trying… trying.

Trying to wake up alone in bed
trying to cook for just one head
trying to smile and live my life
trying and trying to forget

I’ll be kidding if I said I don’t love you
but i’m dying… dying.

Dying each time you lie to my face
dying each time you say you love me
dying when i find out your lies
dying when you say you’re sorry

Trying and dying
I can’t escape
trying and dying
from your embrace
trying and dying
set me free
‘coz i’m tired
of your “i’m sorry”

tonight i look at the keyboard wondering what to write. i have so many things that i want to say. too many ideas flow in my mind, too many emotions bangin’ my heart that it would almost burst. too many things and yet i am left to wonder what it is i really want to say… how do i start? how should i end? what should i say?

i don’t know but… let me try this one:

()

*sound of the shower*

:looks at the cellphone, opens and checks the messages:

:browsing… browsing…:

:reads a message:

(to ****)

:eyes flicker over the next few messages:

*ragged breathing*

(cheat! betrayal! lies!)

*heart beating fast*

*shower stopped*

:he looks at me and the phone in my hand:

“what are you doing?”

“fuck you!”

“wait! let me explain.”

:struggles to stand but was trapped in an embrace:

“love, let me exp-”

“i don’t give a damn fuck!”

“hush…”

:struggles, squirming, gasping, crying:

“you take me for a fool?! damn! let me go!”

“i will never let go.”

“this is a joke! right? right?”

“no… no.”

“please, i beg you! let’s stop… please. i’m gonna die… let’s stop this… i’m wasting my years on you.”

“no you’re not… i promise!”

*more struggle*

:hits the wall with her fist, thrice:

“how many times do i have to die, for you to be satisfied and just look at me? tell me!”

“…i love you!”

“fuck you!”

:squirming, kicking, tears streaming down her face:

“please, let me explain…”

:tired feeling:

“what else is there to explain? you’ve done this many times…you liar.”

“i haveĀ  a reason… this is the only way for me to see my baby.”

“fuck you and your excuses. i’ve heard them before. know what, if you want them, go to them! don’t let me be a hindrance to your fucking relationship.”

(tears started again)

“you’re not…. you’re no trouble. i love you.”

“but you’re my problem! can’t you see that?”

“that’s what my mom said too”

“and she’s right!”

(more struggling)

:please:

“let me go.”

“never.”

(silence)

:looks up the ceiling, breathing hard:

“it’s over. i can’t believe anything you say.”

“i love you.”

“you said that before but still lie to me. it doesn’t mean shit to me. your love is bullshit.”

:tightens hold:

“please wait for me… just for a few more months.”

“it’s been years and yet nothing changed. i can’t wait anymore.”

“baby, let’s run away from this place and start a new life. i promise you i’ll hold your hand in public and let people know you’re my baby.”

(silence)

“baby?”

“it doesn’t matter. i’ve had it. your words are just words. you never mean anything you say. i can’t and will never believe you. don’t you dare blame me. you made me this way.”

“… i’ll always love you.”

“it doesn’t matter. you love anyone who loves you. well, i’m sorry. i can only take so much.”

“…”

:bitterness:

:sadness:

:betrayal:

:freedom:

:release:

I Know

i know i love you
i know i’m crazy about you
i know i can’t help it
i know i’m head over heels
i know what people think of me

i know they snicker behind my back
i know they silently laugh at me
i know they think me stupid
i know they think me foolish
i know it’s because of you

i know you love me because i love you
i know you feel secure with me
i know you have dreams of the future
i know you think of me
i know you lie to me

i know you cheat on me
i know you don’t consider it as such
i know you think it’s just jealousy
i know you think i’ll forgive you always
i know you don’t know what i can do

i know myself better than you
i know you don’t deserve me
i know you “occasionally” lie to me
i know you take me for granted
i know you are never sorry

i know it’s the same old story
i know it’s a tiring one for me and you
i know it’s been a long time
i know it’s time i stop kidding myself
i know it’s time to say bye bye

i know this to be the truth:
“i loved you”.

Dream Over

reaching hand

a hand reaching out to me
i clasped it tightly
hoping it’ll never let go
praying i will never have to
fingers intertwined
as if any space will tear both apart
tightly bound by flesh
but as abruptly as it appeared
my hand felt nothingness
it opened and closed
searching for the one lost

i opened my eyes

the dream is over
