i knew exactly what love looked like even before i knew seventeen
even though i haven& #39;t met love yet, if i saw love in a video i would have recognized him at first glance.
love...had his hair up
love...had his hair up
i would have recognized him at first glance.
love wore specs
love wore specs
love was good at dancing.
and he looked cool while doing so
and he looked cool while doing so
and i knew,
i just must be searching incorrect terms,
just must be checking the wrong places.
i just must be searching incorrect terms,
just must be checking the wrong places.
he was there, i was sure of it....
but when love finally showed up
he had his hair down
he had his hair down
his hair almost always reached his eyes
love didn& #39;t really wear specs...
he wasn& #39;t that good in dancing either
instead,
when i try to look up his name, i never end up seeing what i wanted to find
but now his name means special, no matter how common it is.

love became the reason i look forward to everyday, hoping for something new.
love always sang sunday morning,
bringing a new twist to the admittedly generic song
bringing a new twist to the admittedly generic song
love had a light voice, a gentle sound that i always liked to hear.
he often starts songs and i would always anticipate if it would be him in the beginning.
love had a medium build that makes him seem tiny at times, almost like a soft toy you want to embrace and protect.
when love smiles, his eyes hides behind his lids
and when he laughs, the whole room pauses to stare.
and love grew.
i changed.
i changed.
love disappeared...slowly
losing parts of me i thought i needed
losing parts of me i thought i needed
and when love finally reappeared...
i barely recognized him
love looked different now.
his stance was different, his confidence was different
his stance was different, his confidence was different
love came with dimples i didn& #39;t recognize
a deeper voice
love had more selfies
...a LOT more selfies
love differently now
but danced just as much
love doesn& #39;t start songs now, he is snuggled somewhere in between
but i would be more than willing to wait

love is not who you were expecting
love is not what you can predict
love is not what you can predict
maybe love is 20 years old
maybe love is 24
maybe love is 24
maybe love is in the wrong time zone
and you are one hour behind
and you are one hour behind
maybe love is not ready for you
maybe you are not ready for love
maybe you are not ready for love
maybe love is only there for a year
maybe love stays
love arrives exactly when love is supposed to
and love leaves exactly when love must
when love arrived I said,
"Welcome, make yourself comfortable."
"Welcome, make yourself comfortable."
but before that...
when love left, I asked him to leave the door open behind him
and I whispered,
"Thank you for stopping by"
and I whispered,
"Thank you for stopping by"
( end )
everything is directly based from sarah kay & phil kaye& #39;s slam poetry "When Love Arrives" !!!!! i definitely didn& #39;t write the concept and all, i made it fit seventeen lang :)
it& #39;s my favourite, you should watch it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdJ6aUB2K4g">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

timely lang (i& #39;m a cheol stan na talaga guys....ang tagal ng denial stage HAHAHA) so i made this thread.
but joshua will still, and always be in my heart.
maybe i found a new home now, but i will never forget what home was once.
the best line for me is "love arrives exactly when love is supposed to and love leaves exactly when love must"
kaya kayo...kung nahihirapan kayo dyan...honesty lang sa sarili ang kailangan nyo wag nyo na ideny HAHAHAHHAHA

and btw, yung sa beginning pala, kaya nandun si gyu/won/hao, the very first seventeen video i watched kasi was mansae, and si mingyu yung una kong napansin. but i didn& #39;t stan them yet. tapos sometime later, my friend made me watch healing, tas si won naman. not a stan parin.
tapos i stumbled upon highlight, and sobrang i liked hao. tapos dun i started listening to them na talaga. pero after a year or so pa talaga ako naging carat. and then i found joshua.
maybe we have a cookie cutter of the types we like (or want to like) but sometimes, maybe most of the time, we go beyond them. and we end up surprising ourselves.
"love is not who you were expecting
love is not what you can predict"
love is not what you can predict"
and maybe we tie ourselves to the comfortable, to the known. but we have to be honest. especially to ourselves. kasi it would be yourself who would be having a hard time and hurting.
love arrives exactly when love is supposed to
And love leaves exactly when love must
love arrives exactly when love is supposed to
And love leaves exactly when love must
so turn off the music, listen to the quiet
and tell yourself what you truly feel. :)
and tell yourself what you truly feel. :)
ok that& #39;s all. drama lang @ 1AM :( hehehe
btw, this was supposed to be "love laughed differently now" :(((((( https://twitter.com/nightsvt/status/1112742518439866368">https://twitter.com/nightsvt/...
