Written Under the Rainfall

My friend,

It rained last night.

I started to panic. I knew it was a sign for me that time is running at full speed. I know that sooner or later, everything will return to the same old place. And it's not supposed to happen because we've already done so much efforts to make something out of nothing between us. You see, I may have been kidding you about the other person but the truth is all I really wanted was to know where and when I should step into your life. God knows I've been longing to do that. But everytime I attempt to take a step closer, you become a little defensive. I just don't know if you do that on purpose. But you're quite good at it.

What should I do now? Should I let this rainy days take over and finish everything we've started a few months ago? I know that you already know how I feel. I know that, like me, you're also scared to make things more serious. I guess, that's also your weakness. But unlike you, I don't want to end us like this. Not in this way. I don't want to torture myself of thinking of what could've been. I've already hurt myself many times because of that. I don't want to be a coward anymore.

Reality check, we're not a hopeless case and you know that. We're both just waiting for one of us to make a move. And that's what I'm doing ...I'm crossing the line now.
