Love just isn't enough to last


A Lot has happened within this year, Had a lot going on with my family and friends, done a lot of shopping, have tried going out to bars with my girl friends. When Suddenly I felt a different feeling, a feeling that i had to leave someone behind. Then there, It was the person i loved and wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I never really expected it. Just last month he was all that occupied my mind and heart. It just ended that way, I fell out of love. I often thought that if you really love somebody, the possible reasons of a break up would be sacrifice (for example: family matters, going abroad, etc.), and another is a third party. But in my case, it was just plain falling out of love, boredom maybe i could call it. I got bored of love, just like the line in that song:

So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay Love can be so boring
Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now

[Chorus]

But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had


I would always say that we had good times, though as far as i could remember we had bad times more often. Thinking about it, what really caused the lost of interest? I really couldn't say that I was attracted to another, so far I'm going single and not even infatuated with anybody. Maybe I just reached the age where I want to be single! I want to do things freely, without anyone to stop me, or pressure me. I don't want anyone to get hurt anymore.

We've tried time and again, he went to my house, we talked on the phone, we went out watched a movie, then i just finally realized... i guess it's the end of it. This is where love ends. The feeling was different, it was now fading, i was sad for what was happening, but it just happened as it is, no matter how i tried. It's hard to leave someone behind, i never really expected this to come so soon, but it came and now he's hurt, "I'm sorry.." is all i could ever say to him now, i have failed to hold on to us. After the long and never ending problems, fights and lies, this is what finishes our story. A very subtle and calm feeling that urged me to feel freedom as an individual.

I don't know if i would miss him, could i still be capable of going back to him. You see, he's really different, the chemistry. We were happy with each other, we laughed a lot and shared the same thoughts and opinions. In a relationship all factors come together, chemistry/attraction, compatability, family, interests, stability, friends, and also priorities. We loved each other, But I guess that wasn't enough. LOVE is not ENOUGH. That became the painful truth for both of us. Going back to him.. i think it would just be a thought for some time. Like he told me, "your memories will be part of the skies"-to my thinking, "aba pinatay mo na agad ako" but now i understand that it would be better than to keep holding on and hoping. This is now the end of this chapter in my life.
