The Promise Of Love

I've been listening to this song of Martin Nievera for years, yet it is just now that I have come to appreciate the lyrics of the song....

The Promise of Love

I kneel beside you here today

I kneel beside you and I pray

That it's you, its only you

Who will share my tomorrows and yesterdays

I searched a lifetime and found you

A bridge to forever I share with you

Open your heart and let me in

As I give you this promise of love

I heard an angel say your name

Now I know my world's not the same

A little heaven is what you are

As we dream a thousand dreams not so far

And may the blessings of our Lord above

His light will guide us with a love

For you and me forevermore

As I give you this promise of love

Now that I have you for my own

As God is our witness never let me go

Feel the love grow as we become one

One hand, one heart

We are one soul

I stand before you just a man

I need your help to understand

What is life without you

As I promise you this day and forever

This promise of love

This promise of love

This promise of love....

Dazed and Confused

I miss Enrique.

I don't know why my feelings are so strong for this guy, I don't know why I am missing him this much. And I am not sure if I have the right reasons to do so.

It is a fact that we didn't really get to know each other before he left (and this is a huge understatement) and that we only got to "know" each other through millions of text and hours of phonecalls (yes, those phone bills that left a hundred grand hole in his pocket). Yet for me, it doesn't seem to matter anymore.

However, I am just questioning my feelings, because up until now, I am still a bit confused.

I just got out of a traumatic relationship early this year, and its ending left me hanging. My one year of longing to be with the one I love(d) yielded nothing. Then came Enrique, a few months after. I tried to resist the urge to entertain another potential, to no avail. How could I have resisted the sweet, thoughtful, and bolero Enrique?

I just couldn't help but wonder: am I really in love, or is this feeling an outcome of my frustration from my past relationship?

I would like to believe that I really am in love. The second one is a bit too unfair for Enrique, and I know he doesn't deserve such.

Maybe I'm just complicating things.

Maybe it's just this: I just miss Enrique.

Of Novels and Pictures

I just received a 14-page letter (more like a novel, really!) from my beloved Enrique, along with 3 of his pictures onboard. And I missed him all the more.

I just think that January is around the corner. I can't wait to see him. In the meantime, I will just read again his message and stare at his pictures.... Sigh....


Enrique my dear...
