Rain

by Jet Black Joe

You are the sun
You are the rain keep falling on me never get enough
You are the sun
You are the rain keep falling on me never get enough

Then why is it you are leaving?
I don’t know why you’ve come in my heart
Then why is it you’re now leaving?
I don’t know why you brought it down on me

Come on baby let’s forget about that’s you
Tried to set my mind on nothing, oh yeah
Don’t try to change me, don’t try to change me now

You are the sun
You are the rain keep falling on me never get enough
You are the sun
You are the rain keep falling on me never get enough

Come on baby let’s forget about that’s you
Tried to set my mind on nothing, oh no
Don’t try to change me, don’t try to change me now

Come on baby let’s forget about that’s you
Tried to set my mind on nothing, oh no
Don’t try to change me, don’t try to change me now
I wanna do right thing

You don’t have to change me
I already set my eyes on something, oh yeah
I really wouldn’t blame you
If you walk down out the door because of me

Come on baby let’s forget about that’s you
Tried to set my mind on something, oh yeah
Don’t try to change me, don’t try to change me now

Come on baby let’s forget about that’s you
Tried to set my mind on something, oh yeah
Don’t try to change me, don’t try to change me now
I wanna do right thing

Saturday night, I met up with some old friends. DA was in town and we went out for a few drinks. We met up with some old friends and it was really fun! We reminisced about the old days and DA told us stories about his mom and nanay. See, the reason why he came home is because his grandma passed away and just about a month ago his mom also passed away. It was really sad but at least we got to see each other again. Bits and pieces of what happened last night are below. Kinwento ko kay A because he was part of it and alam niyo na, nalaseng na naman ang lola niyo kaya ayan daldal na naman. It was a rainy night and the sounds from the bar kept getting louder. And here were the text messages, complete with the typo errors. Haha!

B: huy please pleears pleagse don’t mind boyet. he’s just drunk. oh ny gosh. just don’t mind him. i’m so so so sorry. just don’t mind him ha. wala na kong face na haharap sa yo. fuck3r! I’m too drunk! sorry dhn he woke you up pa. i’m really really really am rorry

A: good morning B! You know right now am dealing with some shit, then you pull out something like this… whatever it is… makes me feel better. salamat. as to Boyet, never answered his call. Hope he won’t push it hard enough to make me react. take it easy. and if I react… it’s not your issue anymore, it’s me and Boyet’s issue already. So you better get out of the way. Hehe. Still, hope it won’t get that far.

B: don’t mind na lang if he calls again. and please don’t take it against him. sagot ko friends ko, it’s all my fault, me and my big mouth. basta ignore him na lang if he calls again. don’t answer the phone. sorry talaga ha? as in omg, I don’t know how long I have to apologize for this but I will. hey what’s wrong? I’m still a friend. about last night, I said I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to add up to whatever it is you’re dealing with right now, never meant to. and if you’re feeling shitty, welcome to my world! I thought nakausap ka niya last, pretending lang pala. Anyway, I don’t think he’ll call you. hindi naman kami close friends para ma-affect siya ng ganon. I am nothing to him, or to everyone. stupid me lang naniwala ako he was talking to you. stupid

A: it did not add up. somehow, it made me feel better. odd but thanks.

B: na-entertain ka ba? haha! anyway, whatever it sana it’ll work out. alam mo last night nun hug ako ni DA, I didn’t want to let go. sobrang na-feel ko yung importance ko and I felt so safe and secure. meron pa palang ganon. parang nothing could go wrong

A: very nice! glad you guys meet up.

B: what’s wrong pala? feel like sharing? if you don’t feel like it, I understand

A: I was just feeling lazy about my things to do, sobrang lazy like I wanna self destruct purposely. don’t know why. then you texted me like you made a very grave mistake. that made me feel better siguro. hehe

B: oo, think of me lang and I’m sure you’ll feel a whole lot better. last night super happy ako kaya lang i made DA cry. and I couldn’t do anything to make him feel better first time ko siya nakita umiyak. di ko alam sasabihin ko. gusto ko siya i-hug to make it all go away per di ko magawa

A: I thought you did hug him.

B: he did, I did, pero nun na lang pauwi na kami. not while we were talking. sobrang na-miss ko si DA!

A: missing is positive, gives you some hope to meet again. good good good. I’m glad for you!

B: oo pero kelan pa ulet. Parang everyone who misses me is on the wrong side of the planet

A: All I know is you feel better when you get what you hope for. hehe. one sided mind ata ko e.

B: I’m hopeless

B: grabe sakit ng ulo ko. tapos when I lie down on my left side, my tummy goes weird. tapos umiikot lahat inside my head

A: hehe. sasabihin ko pa naman na ang bilis mo mag sober up.

B: di ko nga alam kung makakauwi ako e

A: ha, asan ka?

B: bicutan. di nila ko pinauwi kse nga super laseng na ko

A: rest ka muna. sundo kita dyan mamaya mga 2pm. hatid kita sa inyo.

So, he fetched me from Che’s place in Bicutan and brought me home to my place in Quezon City. And he never got off the car. Sabi ko nga para siyang tanga, nagsayang lang siya ng gas cause pede naman akong sumabay kila Che because they were going to Caloocan. He said it’s okay because at least he got to see me and I made him feel better nga. Weird huh? But I was touched and the effort was much appreciated.
