Lines from Cosmo in my short film, Paglaom (2020)

"Some people only look at the shell and not what’s inside it, or they don’t bother to break the shell, so they will never see. I want to be near you, to always see you and touch you, and feel your beating heart. Let me be the one to save you from the storm, someone who will walk with you even when the road gets rough. The world is cruel so be safe, my dear."

"I guess you were only there to make me smile when the rain fell hard on me, when my heart was heavy and filled with doubt, you helped me carry all those negativities away. If I could rewind time, I would rather still have met you. Even though I knew in the end, we may not see each other again. Because at some point you made me happy and I will forever be thankful for that. I love you, and I still regret until this day that I never told you how I felt for you. As I realize that every day, you also said your bittersweet goodbye to me."
