Sincerity Is Scary Lyrics Novels & Stories

“You’ve been saying that a lot lately.” “Because sometimes… I can’t tell the difference between dreams and memories.” “Then make this one a memory worth keeping.” Hinila niya ito palapit, at marahan silang naghalikan. Walang pagmamadali. Walang galit. Tanging pagnanais na maramdaman ang buhay sa bawat sandali. When they pulled away, he whispered, “You know what scares me?” “What?” “That one day, I’ll look at you and see her.”

“That’s always your answer. Nothing. Don’t ask. Don’t look. Don’t care. Don’t come close. Pero you keep saying things that sound like you’re daring people to notice.” He stood too. “You don’t know what you’re talking about.” “Then explain!” “I don’t owe you an explanation!” “I know!” My voice cracked, and I hated it. “I know you don’t. Pero I’m scared, okay?” Caelan froze. The words were already out. Too honest. Too much. But I couldn’t pull them back anymore. “I’m scared,” I repeated, quieter. “Because sometimes you say things like that and I don’t know if I’m supposed to ignore them or take them seriously. And if I ignore them, what if I’m wrong?”

“I’m not asking for promises, and I’m not asking for love.” Napatingin ako sa kanya nang diretso. Those words were not what I expected. “Just moments,” he continued calmly. “When the world gets too loud and we want to forget everything else.” My brows slowly furrowed. “You’re asking me to commit a sin and pretend it means nothing.” “I’m asking you not to lie to yourself about what you feel.” His answer came quickly. Too quickly. As if he had already thought about this many times before. Feelings.

"Okay." "Now answer me honestly." Huminga ako nang malalim. "Sometimes I was thinking if you were too busy." "Hmm." "Time will come you will get tired." Hindi siya agad sumagot. At nang magsalita siya, ramdam ko ang sincerity sa bawat salita. "Do you know what's funny?" "What?" "I'm actually scared of the same thing." Napakunot-noo ako. "Huh?"
