Someone To Watch Over Me
I always wonder, is it really possible for us to love someone from afar?
The other night I was lying on the grass, trying to watch the stars under the canopy of trees. I was listening to a familiar song by Sting, his remake of "Someone To Watch Over Me." One line of the song, it captured the mood of the moment. "there is somebody I'm longing to see... i hope that she turns out to be... someone to watch over me.." that song reminded me of someone's hope that the right person will come along.
Last week, a friend of mine left a message in my ym. She told me, "it's confirmed. He has someone new." I wasn't surprised at all. And I told her before that to be ready for this kind of reality. He is in the US while you are still here. We are still human beings, and prone to such needs like intimacy. Though I knew some people who have maintained such, but the truth is, it is really hard to have a long distance relationship.
The hardest part of loving is when we have to love from afar. Distance is sometimes the ultimate factor that decides whether two people in love would falter to succeed. It can be a poison that can slowly paralyze even the healthiest of relationships. It is this very reason why it would be difficult, if not totally impossible.
If we really love someone, then you could just hold on to that feeling for as long as you want. But, there can never be a guarantee that we will find fulfillment in it because we are separated by miles of ocean and deep sea of doubt that tells you that really isn't over until its over.
It's never too late to start all over again. It would be a difficult task but it's worth the effort if it's for someone we love. Trust with your heart. Believe that time and distance can never stand against two people who are destined for each other. If the love we have for that person remains as strong as it was before, then never let anyone take that away from us.
I guess we have to take a chance and if it doesn't work out, at least we know we did our best. Just make sure we have learned your lesson well so the next time love calls, we'll never have to fall flat on our face again.
As I lie down on the grass, and see the stars under the canopy of trees... I sang with Sting silently while looking at a far away star, saying... "wont you tell her to put on some speed, follow my lead, oh how I need... someone to watch... over me..."
