"When I say I love you, what it means is thank you. Thank you
for being there.
When I say I love you, what it means is I am still longing
for you.
When I say I love you, what it means is that I do get tired
sometimes, my nerves get shaky often times, and my knees tremble. My arms
become weary because whenever I say I love you, it means that I will work hard
for it.
I will wait for you, follow you and court you, because my
love doesn’t simply end with a simple “I love you”. My love is prepared to
accept that this, this is the kind of adversity that goes with love; embrace
it.
When I say I love you, what I mean is that the world is
unforgiving and that I would love everyone whom you love so let me confront all
the coming storms, let me melt under the heat of the sun, let me convince you
that I am also on your side.
You are the destiny that I wish for, you are the story I
wouldn’t tire of reading, you are the moment that I always remember, you are
the rest that I desire, you are every breath.
When I say I love you, I am also saying that I’m happy
because no matter how long a day is my love, I will come home to you."
