when it's over...

how do you know it's over? i mean really over. not the pathetic 'i'm ok' pero galing sa ilong over. when can you say that you're really free? that the ties that bind have been irreparably severed?

when the little things cease to matter i suppose. when the strains of a familiar melody no longer haunt you... or when you can say his name without feeling a twinge of regret.

i was thinking about this last night.

i keep asking myself why is it so hard to let go...
