Just Like A Splendid Love Song

I know I should be apologizing. How dare I use this for my blog. I'm sorry but I could not put together words that would aptly describe what my last five months have been other than what I borrowed from the band. It was filled with joy and the feeling of being complete and content with what I have. It was indeed like a splendid love song.

Sometimes I still ask myself if all this is real. If God really brought us together. Hell, my inebriated ass simply could not believe. The past five months have been the happiest by far. It didn't run as smoothly as I would want it though. There were ups and downs along the way, I wouldn't deny that. But hey, it's all part of the whole process. And it's all worth it, if you ask me. I wouldn't want it any other way. Like what I usually tell her, this right here, is my favorite part of my life simply because she's in it.

Whenever we are together, it's as if the world ceases to exist. We never seem to give a shit about what's out there. To borrow a line from the song, "...just the two of us painting a world of our own. Everything is perfect. Just like a splendid love song." This somehow epitomizes what "us" means.

As much as possible I want her to stay behind the camera. I want to keep everything as private as possible. I have to be pardoned. I have to be forgiven. Because if you are in love, you want people to know. And that is one of the reasons why I am writing this - I want people to know. More importantly however, I want her to know. I want her to understand what the last five months meant to me. I want her to understand what she means to me.

Happy heart's day babe!

I love you Nica, with all my heart.

July 2013. The time when I would say perhaps what got me to where I am today. Nope, I'm not talking about career or anything like that. That's just a bit too lame to occupy a space in my blog. I'm talking about her. It's the time I looked at her one second too long and told myself, "Man, whoever she's dating is the luckiest man on earth". Shortly though (and unfortunately, if I may add), I found out that she was dating someone. One lucky schmuck was dating the girl who quite frankly is a big reason why I took the TL post. But that didn't dampen any of my hopes that someday I'll hold her hand and thank God for giving her to me.

Finally I got to know her. She was still with someone back then. She would tell me stories about her and her guy and I would listen intently. It was then I found out that that schmuck was taking her for granted. She loved him though. But I wasn't bothered one bit. I stayed. I knew one day my waiting would payoff; that she would realize that she deserves someone a lot better. It may not be me but I'm sure as hell it's not that jerk. Finally she did.

A few months have passed. I'm now holding her hand and thanking God every single day since then. I must have been a good child because He gave me such a wonderful present. One would say luck has a lot to do with it, others would say it's fate. Whatever it is, I'm happy with how it turned out. Maybe it is destiny. But hey, you still have to build the bridge to the one you love.

We're now entering our first month together and to say that I am very happy with her is an understatement. Sometimes I even ask her if all this is real. She would normally oblige and tell me it is, then kiss me right after. Maybe I just could not believe that the girl of my dream is finally here. And she is mine.

I'm seeing her tonight. It's still several hours from now and time seems to be not as cooperative as I would want it to be. But hey, I waited for her all my life, what's several hours, right?
