LEATHER

So…the cold December nights which overlapped in January up until the Valentine month, the scorching heat of the morning sun and the weary hearts of those who welcomed the year without another hand clasped into theirs. Summer lovin’ is now o(w)pppen.

You see boys and girls, there are different types of scared.  Either you’re scared to fall in love again, scared to play a game you can lose, scared that you want to but you don’t know how this is played or scared that you don’t want to play but the whole world seem to have handcrafted the art of building walls so why won’t you climb your way in?

Fouls are called when you’ve violated the rules. Free throws are given to people whom this people have done wrong. The world has made a call, someone missed a free throw of what could’ve been a precious point. The person who missed it has two options, either to go after it or to let it go. You’re in the sidelines. Do you want this?

Love is a ball game. There are times when you try to make a basket but it doesn’t go in, you box out, rebound and try again. Sometimes, you box out and the rebound goes to someone else. You go to the other end of the court, someone wastes a shot, they box out, rebound and try again. Sometimes, they box out but the rebound goes to you, so you take it to the other side….

….but what do you do on the other end?

People get hurt. And even if you call for a foul, the damage has been done. The world gives you another shot and it is all up to you to make it right or play it lame.

If you decide to play, make sure you’re up with someone who’s on the same game.

If you decide to pass, don’t dribble much. You’re hurting the ball. Just pass.

If you decide to take a shot, just go for it, bastard.

 

The only thing a ball can do after being thrown is bounce. While rebounds are meant to be dangerous in a basketball game and in love, decent science will tell you that:

“Nothing is displaced…until replaced.”

Moving On and The Five People You Meet in Hell Spin-Off.

Person1:

THE QUIZ MASTER

This is the person who never ran out of questions—read: never.
He/She is drastically ideal, that a faltering relationship
gives birth to endless questioning that it turns days into nights.
You’ll perceive him or her as an individual who’s in a famine of
understanding.

But the truth is…

The answer is available. it is just refused to be accepted.

From my Inbox:

“Sometimes we know the answer to our questions
—yet we still ask WHY?..
..it’s because the answer we know,
is the one we can’t bear to admit.”

Person 2:

THE FORTUNE TELLER

This is the person who believes that everything happens for a reason. That in relationships,
there are things that are inevitable and are bound to happen. in other words, instances that
they consider beyond their human control.

But in reality..

all that transpired was a choice that has to be made.
And choices are definitely under our control.
whether from whose party it would come from.

From my Inbox:

“Destiny is something you’ve invented because you can’t stand the fact that
everything that happens,
is the result of your choice.”

Person 3:

THE MIME

This is the person who believes that in silence, there is courage.
He or she is afraid that speaking out could just be a risk factor of pulling it all back together.

But being too safe,can conceal your worth.
and worthless things don’t deserve much attention, right?

From my Inbox:

“Two things indicate weakness:
to be silent when it’s proper to speak,
and
to speak when it’s proper to be silent.”

Person 4:

THE LINGUIST

This is the person who’ve sworn off every curse possible out of remorse
but would still wanna go back to ground zero. He or she have complained
about everything yet is softened by the others presence.

This is a torture to the chest and pressure in the skull..
having the desire to scream but what comes out is a sigh..

From my Inbox:

“Sometimes, we want to say this to someone:

*you suck. you’re an insensitive,inconsiderate,selfish,cruel,thoughtless, mean person
who doesn’t even deserve to be cared for by a person like me.
I wish you could just disappear sou you couldn’t hurt me anymore*

..but when we open our mouths to say it,
it comes out a little softer like,

~i love you.”

Person 5:

THE SCIENTIST

This is the person who have been patient and persevering in splitting the ironies.
One person who recognizes weakness but finds a way to be steady amidst of his/her shaking knees.
Who cries over memories but welcomes new experiences.
A person who is immersing oneself in every related thing and figures out how to neutralize its impact.

Not only to know what is right from wrong,
but what he/she deserves.

From my Inbox:

“Nobody has the power to make things perfect..
but everyone is given countless chances to make things right.”



Everyone of them goes through their own version of hell.
Some are hurt because of doing the wrong move.
Yet some are also in pain doing the right thing.

Taking the big leap is the goal.
Making the first step is the way.
Not looking back is the key.

From my Inbox:

“No jokes would sound laughable ones you’ve heard it already..
..so why let the same pain hurt you more than twice?”


Think about it.
