The art of leaving sometimes demands your heart to deal with it. Well it’s not you…..Whose going to make a fall, it is for the moment to offer and show. The act of falling is a part of your circumstances which took the rule. Perhaps, it’s your very own way to escape. Yes, to escape in this crazy world because you are SO TIRED OF BEING there. In this sense, it doesn’t mean that you want it to happen, but instead, it is your MUST, and that sometimes you just have to do….. No matter how it hurts.
Just like a fall of a leaf by the roots burning its soul. No one can help it; well basically everyone must take the flow. In times of uncertainty, who knows where to find strength to hold on and which to find reason not to quit? I guess it’s a WOUND that WON’T SEEM TO HEAL that the PAIN IS JUST TOO REAL…
Butterfly kissed a beautiful flower as the sun smiles around. How I miss those things… It really means a lot for me. Exactly four and a half years since we become close friend. Almost every day we’ve been together. We both witness the steps of adjustments for every environment that we had. Nevertheless we find companion from each others hand. Together we began to open our dreams to our classmate and make friends until we been used to acquaint comfortably with them. For a short while that we tried to soar and fly. Now it was you who left me. For the moment that we’ve been together, you had so much to be remembered and so much lessons to be learned. How I wish you are still alive to make you feel how much I valued our friendship. We were both suppressed by our childish fears and we both seen our growing. I’d still remember our usual day that always starts with a simple “hi!” and it ends by saying “Goodbye!” We’ve shared our happiness, hard times and our ups and downs. We speak our thoughts and express our emotions and talk about anything under the sun. It’s how we took the road and sailed our oceans. Certainly you could be that someone who knows me inside & out. For it just happens that I know what makes you happy and perhaps you also knew mine. At times I may not be enough for you, well I am sorry. Sorry for all the bad things I’ve done. And thank you for all the understanding (even I know sometimes you were the only one who does it for me). For all the support and acceptance thanks a lot. It doesn’t all ends here because YOUR PRESENCE STILL LINGERS HERE in my heart. ..Something I will never forget.
For our circle that uses to call ourselves “ILITE”, which made a vocabulary of our own, a new set of language that we shared to laugh about. We might see ourselves laughing and teasing around, I know deep inside us we are melting. We find strength from each others arm and proud to be “Intact Six” in times of trouble. Trying to recall all things that only our group understands, like the way we had fun at the expense of our own way to fight our sorrows and pain. Well, all sort of sadness were left unspoken. The only truth now is that one piece of the puzzle will never be intact again. I appreciate the effort you guys are giving, trying to fill the emptiness we felt. We are hoping that this puzzle of our friendship will continue growing.
Because someday when we CRY, I know she will WIPE AWAY ALL OF OUR TEARS and in times when we SCREAM hope she will FIGHT AWAY ALL OF OUR FEARS…
I knew it long before I enter this university and now as I am about to take the flight, I will prove myself not profound. At the expense of getting into it is such a different story. For this entire thing that may take its space on earth, those which we never expect to happen just suddenly knock our doors.
It seems so overused but it’s true that the worth of a person will come as they gone through. Perhaps one should expect the unexpected…And play the game right …and not to tell yourself that your life was a big Mess –jen_07■
