Someone once asked me if loving you ever scared me; if ever there was a time in my life where only the fear of losing each other is my connotation of love. And honestly, my answer was... YES. I was so scared. I was so scared that my coffee in the morning won't be as warm and sweet as it once was for I won't have someone to begin my day with while sipping it. I was so scared that watching the sun set will only remind me of tragic endings, and that I won't be able to relish the sight of such a magnificent phenomenon ever again while having someone watch me and think the same. I was so scared that I might love you too much that you will be forced to leave. And I was so scared that you might not love me enough to make me stay.
I will always be scared no matter what, but I will never ever doubt you. For how can you doubt a love that brings out the best in you despite your shortcomings? How can you doubt someone who's willing to take the leap for you every single time even if he knows he might end up broken? How can you doubt someone with so much love in his eyes, in his hands, in his heart? How can you doubt someone who's willing to waste all that love on you and only you? I can't. For how can you even love someone when you're in doubt?
Poet's note: I just would like to express my admiration for Juan Miguel Severo and his masterpiece, "Ang Huling Tula na Isusulat Ko para Sa'yo." This prose was inspired by his amazing spoken word poetry and I can't thank him enough. He's a real gem.
