Days and weeks spent in deep thoughts, trying to make sense of all that has happened. Minutes continue to crawl and slowly I’m starting to breathe again.

Your shadow still lingers in the deep recesses of my mind. Often when I’m staring blankly ahead, I see you, smiling.

I’ve inked the thoughts of my head and heart. All that’s left unspoken, I’ll keep them hidden until someday I’m ready to have them exposed.

We’ve had our chance and the circumstance was such that we had to part. You’ve drifted off and soon I shall do the same. Leaving behind the deluge of memories which will slowly fade with time.

Perhaps.

Love is wisdom from the heart.

Today wisdom spoke to me.

When it is right. everything will fall into place. In its own time, in its own place. When that time comes, we will find a way out of the darkness. Insurmountable odds will not daunt us nor will it break our spirits. Cos when we have faith, we can ride out any storm together.

For all it could’ve been, I know I cannot cling on to what is no longer possible.

In the meantime, let me sit here a while, to reminisce and to savour.

As it was meant to be said on the gift but somehow didn’t, all I wanted to tell you was:

“Thank you for the perfect moments. Be Happy. :) ”

“There’s this place in me where your fingerprints still rest, your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo. It’s the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me.”
