Whats been on her mind for awhile now...
Has been bugging her for awhile too...
But she is too scared to ask...
She is too scared to find out...
Anxiously she said: "How many have you liked before me?"
He said: "Five."
The feeling of discomfort overwhelms her...
Already regret asking she hesitantly she said: "What are their names?"
And so begins the story of a man who said five...
"Who, What, When, Where and Why"
---
Who was a girl that he met but did not quite get to know...
Like most guys that age, they meet a girl they barely know...
Start filling in the blanks and dream about a fairy tale with her...
Who she became in his head was more than what was reality...
Even though it may be one sided...
There were times where it felt like that popular girl had feelings for that awkward nice guy.
What was a classmate from way back...
But she was more than just a friend...
What was his first crush...
When everything was different...
When everything was new...
He remembers that no matter how much they liked each other...
The affection was not enough to make a difference...
So they had to leave behind what they had.
When was an artist...
Passionate, smart yet so innocent...
They took each other's first kiss...
The feeling of new experiences, discovery and adventures...
But you can only be at that age once...
Now it all seems silly...
But it was real.
Where was a girl that has unusual circumstances...
The normal man would've walked away instantly...
He knew what he signed up for...
But it took a toll on his spirits...
It was a tough affection...
But he matured and grew strong.
Why was a strange one...
Persistent, sweet and romantic...
But she has heavy baggage and poor history...
With her endurance he eventually fell for her...
But what saddened him was that it did not feel like he really fell for her...
Time passed and her heavy baggage and poor history soon crept up...
And he was alone again...
But he learnt that one of the greatest gifts of life...
Is to feel emotions both good and bad...
To give and receive...

After hearing his confession, she sighed...
And she asked: "What about me?"
He said: "You are the sixth."
Confusedly she asked: "Which one am I then?"
He said: "You are none of them."
She stared at him in utter confusion...
---
He then said:
"You are all of them...
You are who I like...
The fairy tales that are actually true...
You are what I like...
The power to change the world...
The best friend...
You are when I like...
All the new experiences and discoveries...
That we will someday reminisce about...
You are where I like...
Because I would go anywhere...
Just to be with you...
You are why I like...
Because before you...
I didn't truly understand what I was looking for...
Now that we have found each other...
You will be my past, my future and my present."
