cinderella song

i'll probably embarrass myself with what i'm about to write.
my only justification is, it's just too wonderful to hide.



i can right now say, with my head high, bashful but unashamed,
that i'm in love. probably not the over-the-fence, world-series
kind of thing --better. 'cause it isn't the kilig stuff that's causing
all these pretty flutters in my middle. this is...different.
spectacularly different.

it's peaceful. full, but not feeling the weight. it's just there,
infinitely between the stomach and the chest...

he may not be physically with me, but i really don't need
him around to feel this way. nevertheless, it's with him that
i most feel home.

i start regretting the past less, but also feel disinclined to see the future more. i just
want to live and cherish one day at a time. and that's only because i never want it to end.

and everyone seems to be rightfully where they are, and it seems
hard to hate anyone, and it becomes easier to be content. if people
felt this way more often, the world could be a much better place.

what would have seemed too ideal to be possible, is now very tangible.

no, it's not perfect. it doesn't have to be.
