Crazy

Hey, you.

Can you keep a secret?

I have something to confess.

I've been doing crazy things lately.

I don't know why. Maybe it's because I'm going crazy.

Someone once told me that I would.

I didn't believe him.

I can't stop thinking about him.

He was always honest to me. He didn't believe in flattery.

Gossip called us a couple.

I don't know what we were.

We went out together, as friends, maybe more.

Maybe we were a couple.

Maybe we just didn't know it.

But people would point at us and stare. In school, in the malls and even on the streets.

I didn't mind.

I already knew we were different.

Couples were supposed to hold hands right?

Couples were supposed to kiss?

We never did those things. We were different.

I still thought, hoped, that we could be together.

Forever.

But he had to be the best, he had to go and pursue that stupid career of his.

I switch on the tv.

There he is, before a crowd of thousands. Clapping, cheering.

There are people screaming, fan girls.

But I knew he wouldn't take them.

He was different.

But maybe I should have told him how I felt before he left.

Then maybe he wouldn't have left.

This is all so crazy.

I wish he'd come back.

I have so much to tell him, so much to ask him.

Who is he, you ask?

Well, that's a secret.

I can tell you this much though.

He's the person who stole my heart as easily as I stole candy from the receptionist's desk.

He's the person who won my heart as quickly as he won all those medals lining his shelf.

I've heard a saying before.

I once shed a tear in the ocean. The day I find it again is the day I'll stop loving you.

That's how crazily I've fallen in love.

I wonder if he can hear me, though.

Every night I talk to his picture.

"Can you hear me?"

"Can you hear my voice?"

"I love you."

I'd say.

But I don't think he hears me.

Can you keep a secret?

I've been doing some crazy things lately.

I don't know why. Maybe it's because I'm going crazy.

People always point at us and stare.

But I don't mind.

I already knew we were different.

We were crazy.
