HOW I MET HIM

Let me tell you a story;
A story of how I met him
How I met the person who has a mind of a philosopher, a soul of a warrior and a heart of gold

He’s there, sitting, talking with his friend;
Seat located at the very far end
He had this pineapple styled haircut
Looks like his barber made a shortcut

Then, he looked at my direction
I don’t know if I should smile, wave or say hi
So I did what I think the best thing to do that day;
And that’s to look away and ignore him

Years passed by in a blink of an eye
We’re now friends, setting our goals and aiming high
He’s still the aloof one
Always being in the corner as if he’s done

When he’s not around, I always looked for him
Even in the days he had a crush with a girl named Kim
I still looked for him, looking for him and will look for him;
From a distance, from a far- where the lights are dim

A day came that we both realized
There’s a feeling in us for each other that keeps growing
Yet, we ignored it for we are afraid on where it is going;
But still, we never let go on each other’s hand, continuing the journey of discovering what we really have- some may call it a crush, infantuation, and I called it love

The story of how we met isn’t a-fairytale-type of story
Where there is a girl who needs to be saved by a prince and then will live happily ever after

But rather, a story of a girl and a boy- not knowing what love is but later on found it’s meaning for they are together through thick and thin from the beginning.
