Have you ever wished, hoped or yearned for something but know that you can hardly ever get it? Worst thing is, whatever you want is so near yet so far…
There’s a guy. Okay, let’s call him X.
And there’s a girl . Let’s call her H.
H and I have known each other for about 12 years. And somewhere in our 12 years of friendship, we got to know X. Till now, we have known X for about… hmmm… 8-9 years perhaps. We used to play at the playground together almost every other day.
For as long as I can remember, X has always liked H. However, H has never ever showed any feelings for X before. As years passed, X and H still remained as close friends but never once did X force himself towards H or even reveal his feelings for her. Even when H had a boyfriend, he would still hung out with them and be friends with H’s boyfriend. X would always watch from afar and it seems like that was enough for him; H’s happiness. Everyone knew that X had feelings for H but no one said anything.
And on H’s birthday, he would shower her with lavish gifts; always willing to spend on her without any qualms or complains. Is he being foolish or is this well… love? Wait, love is a wrong word. What is love even? He hasn’t even explored other options, hasn’t received any reactions from H; it’s all one-sided. How can that be love? But to call him foolish would also be rather mean. I guess he is sincere but why can’t he just move on?
Me, as a third party watching this whole situation would really wish a nice girl would come along for X and reciprocate his feelings. Maybe then, he would know the meaning of love or being loved; rather than spending all his time and effort on a girl whom he knows has a low chance of having.
What you guys think?
Watching you, hoping hard;
Wishing for a place in your heart
Crossing my fingers, closing my eyes
When I look at you, I’m hypnotized.
The clock is ticking, hours pass
Protecting you secretly behind this mask
You don’t have to know, you don’t have to see
Just have to ensure that you’re happy
Maybe in the future I’ll be gone
But for now your presence I long
Maybe tonight I’ll write you a song
Because to me, you’ll never belong

is H dumb or what? she really dunno X likes her? well i agree with you that X shoudl explore other options but sometimes, some people are juz happy "loving" from afar.. and if X can't let go, then if wouldn't be fair to the new girl cos he'll be juz tryin to transfer his feelings for H to her and she'll end up being the substitute.. at the end of the day, X has to wake up from his entrancement..
yeah, i guess the day for X to "wake up" has yet to come. only time will tell. thanks for dropping by btw! (:
