of poetry and prose that will bring you into various realms and will deliver you all the emotions to love your life and to live your love. '
Do not sleep with a heavy heart.
Do not love a broken heart. Do not fake a cake If you cannot do what's going to take. Do love with all your heart— with purity and art. Promise me to love me at my worse— Even though, I don't love myself at my worse. ?
Have you ever asked yourself;
why do you like these, why do you loathe those and why this works to you and to others not? Have you tried contemplating what makes you a "you" today? Is it the past that still resonates? Is it this present that kept you kicking? Or the future you endlessly predicting? Now, I am asking you—who are you today? Do not ever blame the gravity for falling in love. Blame yourself why you fall in it. Sometimes we need a small mishap to learn something we badly need. The moment you said yes, it's like awarding me a promise that will never be broken. Until now, I still hold on to that. Loving you is like experiencing all the four seasons simultaneously. There are words I want to say but I should not. There are actions I want to do but I cannot. There are things I miss but I should not.
Love also has its own boundary.
No matter how many unfortunate events happen, as if the bad omen became my shadow which always follow me daily, I still have you to make me feel that despite those, all is well. If I had the chance to write our love story, I would like it to be written on papyrus. So that many generations would know how exactly loving you feels like. Endless trial and error you must feel before you truly heal. Christ's season gave Christian Loid— a visionary as Calliope, wishful in stars and imaginative like Prometheus. Son of Cherry Valenzuela, sibling of none. Lover of Love, Wisdom and Universe. Who feels amused by Muses, warm by Vesta and inspired by Athena. Who find happiness in being lost to discovery, hidden in revelation and loved despite pain. Who needs the path to Nirvana, the yellow road to Oz and the map to Wonderland Who gives rays of sunshine, penumbra of the moonlight and waves of ocean. Who fears the melancholy of rejection, the shadow of past and echo of pressure. Who would like to see love in Paris, luxury in England and history in Mesopotamia. Who enjoys the pearls in the sky, the cottons floating in the air and the home inside of someone. Who likes to wear black clothing with vibrant smile and goofy personality. This is me, and I am ready into the unknown. Valenzuela, the perfectly imperfect creature in the Universe. Things might not occur today as we expect, but days are endless. '
Love is everywhere. You'll
soon have it in the right time, on the right place and with the right one. In your embrace, I found refuge. In your eyes, I found respect. With your smile, I feel special. With your existence, I feel at home. At last— at long, long last. I found my home to you. The love for you will always be uncountable. It can't be on expensive flowers, savory dishes or sweet chocolates. Loving you means hugging you with all might so you feel secured. Talking to you non-stop to make your day not boring. Lastly, highly respecting you to make us whole. All ends have means and final ends. For me, those mentioned is you—my happiness. The first day I fell in love with you occurs every day. With you, I always feel worthy to be found. Thank you. Imagine this, your first love has their own first love.
Wish in the stars
that you'll also be immortalised.
The first love never dies,
but you're hoping their first love dies. I'm tired with you, yes. So, please let's rest. Loving you is not an achievement, it's a blessing. Waking up next to you will always reminds me of what love looks like. Spending the day with you will always makes me feel loved. Sleeping together will always say to me that there's another day with you. I wish that when you see the stars, I will be your wish. You're not the god of Love, but you kept on arrowing my heart. May you will be my forever Cupid? If you kept on missing some things in your life, you'll never appreciate that you all had it first before being missed. Not everything you want you'll own, even though you work hard for it. Sometimes, what you truly desire is not destined to be yours. Today, I failed. Tomorrow, I'll try again. As we know it, leap year happens after a 4-year interval. It's rare, just like how I met you. But please know that even though you're rare like a leap year, loving you don't happen in intervals. It constantly happens before, during and after intervals. About the Author
