Tik tak. Tik tak. Tanging tunog ng orasan ang nangingibabaw sa tahimik na bahay—isang tahimik na nakakabingi, na para bang bumabalot sa bawat sulok ng silid. Parang musika ito ng kawalan, ngunit imbes na paginhawahin, lalo lamang nitong pinapalakas ang kabog ng aking dibdib. Tik tak. Parang pinipiga ang aking puso, bawat segundo, bawat saglit, paulit-ulit, na tila pinapaalala ang bigat na matagal ko nang dinadala. Hindi ko na kayang pigilan pa. Kumawala na ang aking mga luha, kasabay ng hiningang tila mabigat na bato sa aking dibdib. Bumagsak ang mga patak na parang ulan sa pisngi kong hindi na sanay ngumiti. Minsan naiisip ko, paano nga ba ako napunta sa ganitong sitwasyon? Ang sakit—nakakapaso, nakakasakal—hindi ito basta lungkot lang, kundi isang matinding kalungkutan na nagpapahina sa aking mga tuhod. Araw-araw, pilit akong bumabangon, pilit tinatawid ang mga oras, pero habang ginagawa ko ito, lalong lumalalim ang sugat. Nasasaktan ako, hindi lamang dahil sa mga nangyari, kundi dahil sa awa ko sa aking sarili. Sino ba namang hindi maaawa kung araw-araw, pinipilit kong ngumiti kahit wala nang natitirang dahilan para sumaya? Ngunit kahit anong mangyari, kahit anong sakit ang idulot nito, isa lang ang sigurado ko: Ikaw at ikaw lamang ang aking mamahalin. Walang makakapalit sa'yo. Sa kabila ng lahat, sa kabila ng mga gabing binubulabog ng tahimik na pag-iyak, ikaw pa rin ang laman ng puso kong durog na durog na. Hays… Nawa’y dumating ang araw na ang tik tak ng orasan ay maging musika ng pag-asa. Pero sa ngayon, ito muna ang aking mundo—isang tahimik na silid, isang pusong nagdurugo, at isang pagmamahal na kahit kailan ay hindi ko kayang bitawan.

Life was never fair, and I don't think it will ever be. One time, I thought, 'Wow....I must've killed a nation on my previous life. And now, living another life is my punishment.' Everyone gets tired, but this is just another level of exhaustion. Everyday is a just vicious cycle of me struggling with life. It's a shame that I get to wake up every morning when there are others who don't. I feel like I'm just waiting to be one of those people. Everyone is nice to me, and at the same time, they're not. There are people who use me, but at the same time, I feel useless. People often congratulate me, but I still feel like a failure. I have many achievements, but I feel like a lost cause. No one ever knew me, until our paths crossed...For the first time in ever, I met my self. We did shared wonderful moments until fate took you from me. Kahit pa masakit sa akin ay ipagpipilitin kong tanggapin na hindi tayo maaaring maging masaya. Nang sa gayon ay hindi na ako maging sanhi ng iyong paghihirap. At kahit alam kong muli na lamang kitang makikita sa aking ala-ala, asahan mong hindi kailanman kukupas ang aking pag-ibig na para sa iyo lamang. It would've been perfect, but life will never let that be. If we can't be together in this life....let us meet again, in a world where no one nor nothing could stop us. Aking hihintayin ang ating muling pagkikita, ginoo. Hayaan nating maulit ang plano ng tadhana na tayo'y magtagpo...aking sisiguraduhin na ating mababago ang mapait na wakas na nakatakda.
