Chrissaire

Who’d have thought
This is how the pieces fit?
You and I
Shouldn’t even try making sense of it

I forgot
How we ever came this far
I believe we had reasons
but I don’t know what they are
So blame it on my heart, oh

Love moves in mysterious ways
It’s always so surprising
When love appears over the horizon
I’ll love you for the rest of my days
But still, it’s a mystery
How you ever came to me
Which only proves
Love moves in mysterious ways

Heaven knows
Love is just a chance we take
We make plans
But then love demands a leap of faith

So hold me close
And never let me go
‘Cause even though we think we know
which way the river flows
That’s not the way love goes, no

Love moves in mysterious ways
It’s always so surprising
When love appears over the horizon
I’ll love you for the rest of my days
But still, it’s a mystery
How you ever came to me
Which only proves
Love moves in mysterious ways

Like the ticking of the clock
two hearts beat as one
But I’ll never understand
the ways it’s done

Love moves in mysterious ways
It’s always so surprising
When love appears over the horizon
I’ll love you for the rest of my days
But still, it’s a mystery
How you ever came to me
Which only proves
Love moves in mysterious ways
Love moves in mysterious ways

I had to convince him to go with Madon and that we will just see each other in a particular spot in the mall. I was trying to figure out a really good excuse so he would agree. Without much of an effort he agreed, but with a sad look in his eyes. As I watched him wheeled Madon away from where I was standing, I felt a twinge of pain from within me… something that I could not explain. For awhile my feet was glued in the floor and my sight was just following them until they were absorbed by the crowd.

After finally settling for a passport holder to give to him I instantly went outside the department store to meet him. Just minutes without him was lonely. I felt like I was just half of myself…and that I have to rush and go to that other half. I felt like I was totally walking in a strange place with jostling streams of people not minding on my existence as well. Then suddenly in the air I heard that song. “Love moves in mysterious ways…” as the song goes. Perfect timing! It was his last day, and still I was not able to figure out a theme song for the two of us. Right there and then I slowed down my pace as I listened closely to the music. I pondered through the lines- “…..I’ll love you for the rest of my days. Still it’s a mystery how you ever came to me- which only proves Love moves in mysterious ways…”

As I was approaching the exit of the department store and the song started to fade in my ears, the lyrics still lingered to my mind….singing. And I was still caught humming the melodies.

As I was walking to the direction where I will meet Christian, I was like moving towards my goal. I was passing by so many people, but to me they were empty-faceted. I was just so focused to my search for him from a distant that seemed farther than the horizon. I felt my chest growing heavier as I took my steps and still not found the familiar face. I struggled in search for him in the middle of the crowd. Then, all of a sudden my eyes caught the sight of a man standing just ten meters away from me. He was smiling at me with arms opened. Pleased with the site before me, I realized how lucky I have been that this man has found me…halfway to the globe…amidst a world of strangers. When I was finally close to him I asked, “oh you saw me?” And he replied,”I miss you already.” I closed my eyes and tried to hold back my tears from falling then. Suddenly there was the slap of reality. Yes, here is the man I will love for the rest of my days….but for now, he will have to leave.
