We once were two big lovers.

Perhaps, we are not made for romcom series, nor are we made to star in fantasy movies. Our love has never been as big as that one couple from the movie you used to ramble about.

When you questioned their fate and told me that you were sure that we were just made for each other, I laughed at how unaware you are of the fact that the love we had has long gone and dead — that we did not feel anything anymore.

I laughed at how serious you were when talking about the love songs we shared in one playlist, telling me that those songs were ‘so us’ and that every line reminded you just of me.

How old were we when we first talked about marriage and having a happy little family in the countryside?

Now that what is left of you are the hopes you grew inside me, abandoning them as if it is my responsibility to take care of; I would carry all these little memories wishing it could stay forever inside my mind to recall that we were once two big lovers with small hearts trying to captivate the world.
