Another Year Without You


Three years ago as the sun set as we trodded the path back home, we were there together, talking of how beautiful life is. The happiness that enveloped me was most unusual. I saw in you a different me.


The memories of those times were still vivid in my mind. The words you said, the way you looked at me, the way you smiled. How could I forget the beauty of the time? It is forever etched in my heart!


Now as I look back, I always picture a glorious moment. How could someone like you come into my life? You may not know it but you have changed me and transformed my life into a meaningul existence. You give me more reasons to life and to enjoy life.


As I am here and you are there, miles away from each other, distance is no barrier. I sense that you think of me. I feel the warmth of your breathe. I hear the sound of your whisper. I feel you.


In the midst of my loneliness and emptiness, I know you think of me. Though at the moment we are at the mercy of our trust to each other, we sacrifice the time to discover more of life, to discover more about us.


Each night that the moon shines, it reminds me of a promise to behold as we look at the same bright night. My heart will forever be grateful in having you. My life is not a life without you.


Hoping that the years will be kind to us.

I love you, ma.

Thanks

Guess that's it. There is no denying that you will leave. But what to do? Life has to move on. It may be difficult for me to see you go but you have to.

I hope you understand. Thanks for the nice words during your valedictory address. You made me cry. That was the first time I allowed myself to shed tears on commencement exercises. Not even during my time did it happen. There were still words to say. There were still unexpressed emotions to unleash. But I think there is no need to do that anymore. Time will only tell whether you will uncover the mysteries of the deepest recesses of my heart. Just let be. I am hurting. The pain pricks like there is nothing like it. It is so intense that I could not define what is not real and what is imagined. I am dying to tell you that I love you. Whateve...

How

It was already late. Sleep never wanted to disturb me from thinking. It never wanted to liberate me from the pain I was going through. I kept on thinking, thinking til I was numb. I could only feel the throbbing pain that's left after. I would have wanted to free myself from this misery. That early dose of sleep would be quite a relief. But I could not find any of that. My body was begging for some well deserved rest after a long day. Yet the day was made longer by my petty foolishness. This has been difficult for me. I know there was nothing to expect. I did not expect for your message, your email, your sms, your visit, any of that. I did not expect you to greet me on our special day. I did not expect you to show up. I did not expect you... And I expected myself to be this lonely. There was nothing I could do but to allow the tears washed the stain on my cheeks. It went down to even wash the dust that covered my neck. Til it refrained from further flowing down...the tears stopped ...
