You are Special

Another poem I found in my old high school notebook...

You Are Special

Have you ever wondered which hurts the most;
saying something and wishing you had not,
or saying nothing and wishing you had?
I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say.
Don't be afraid to tell someone you love them.
If you do, they might break your heart...
but if you don't, you might break theirs.



Have you ever decided not to become a couple because you were
so afraid of losing what you already had with that person?
Your heart decides whom it likes and whom it doesn't.
You can't tell your heart what to do. It does it on its own...
when you least suspect it, or even when you don't want it to.

Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had
but that other person was too afraid to let you?
Too many of us stay walled because we are too afraid to care too much...
for fear that the other person does not care as much, or at all.

Have you ever denied your feelings for someone
because your fear of rejection was too hard to handle?
We tell lies when we are afraid...
afraid of what we don't know,
afraid of what others will think,
afraid of what will be found out about us.
But every time we tell a lie... the thing we fear grows stronger.
Life is all about risks and it requires you to jump.
Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder
what they would have, or could have had.
No one waits forever...


Yun na! Pak!
