You asked if it were possible to eventually fall for someone you have no feelings for whatsoever. I answered, 'Yes.' You replied, 'No.' Were we talking about us? It seemed like it. And I tried to fend for myself like hell. I tried to fend for us, but I was fighting our battle on my own. And I was on the losing end.
It helped that the lights were dim save for the stars and the moonbeams, and that the Bora wind was salty and the waves were crashing against the shore, and that we've had one too many beers -- they were enough to cover up the salt on my cheeks and the crack in my voice. Then rain fell.
It was all over before I knew it. The getaway. The drinking session. The pack of lights. The discussion. And I had lost. I lost you.
From here on, it becomes pretty clear where I stand in your world. And now that we're off our alternate universe, and back in our normal, ordinary one -- the reality that you won't ever change your mind becomes realer than anything else. And how we'll never be, becomes more apparent.
Seems you won't ever come around as I had hoped you would someday. So I'll send you off with the Boracay winds and let go once and for all.
Paalam na sa iyo. Salamat.
