📍Crumpled Thoughts

We can be in the same room, laugh at the same jokes, we can seat to each other, even stand just inches apart ------ pero hanggang doon lang. Pwede tayong magkita pero bawal makita. Because in this world, we don't exist the way we should.The love is real --- but it's hidden ----- and that hurts more than silence ever could.

I hate how I have to pretend you're just another person in the crowd. I hate how I can only love you in whispers in stolen glances, in late messages or even in video call na agad ding buburahin. You're mine -- but not really. And that's the hardest kind of love to live with --------- one that has to hide just to survive.

Sometimes I wonder if we deserve more than this ---- more than secrecy, more than waiting for the right time that never seems to come. Pero kahit ganito, kahit masakit, kahit tago,kahit walang kasiguraduhan.

Because loving you in the shadows, still feels better that not having you at all.
