For the last time,
I stared at the four walls of my room with increasing sadness felt in the atmosphere.
I closed my eyes because I couldn't hold my tears from coming out. Not again..
Inevitably, they slid unhurriedly like liquid grains and dried up without traces..
reminiscent of moments shared with a person I hardly knew.
The gentle wind gusted inside through the slightly opened window
disturbing the quietness of the room.
It rang the chime..  "What happens here, stays here."
I was always waiting..
waiting for him..
he was my zephyr that rustled in the early summer breeze.
I was swept away by the gentlest of all winds..
I swang the door and took my last glance inside..
then slowly closed it just like a chapter of a book.
I held my head up high and left silently..
"It was beneath me to beg.."

I hurriedly approached the door to open it and rushed outside his flat.
I felt the midnight breeze brushing against my skin while he's staring blankly at me.
His eyes mirrored the confusion battling inside his mind.
Then he suddenly moved towards me and grabbed my arm tightly pulling me inside.
I resisted but his stare overpowered my will to abandon him.

I softly uttered, "I finally found the courage to walk out of your life.."

The deafening cry of silence filled the air. The pain reflected in my face wasn't
even half of what I was feeling inside. The tears started glistening my eyes.

"..but i forgot to take my heart with me."

Then, he let go of my hand without any words spoken.
Every step away from where he stood was shattering the sanity in me..

The turn of events over the decades has almost forgotten that night.
I glanced at the window of my room and saw my own reflection..
The wind chimed bringing a scent familiar to my sense.
I murmured to myself, "the most genuine love is the one that is sweetly surrendered and sacrificed.. just like ours."

He softly whispered to my ear, "just like ours.."

So still..
Gently gushing like a rumbling wind that brings cold rush in summer days
Such a familiar place dimmed by gray clouds that pour heavy rain..
I was stunned standing.. with my eyes locked to each move he made. But the pain of yesterday dazzled the glimpse of him.. I tried to stop this warm thing from aching inside my chest but it kept on murmuring, “feel the pain.. till it hurts no more..” Such a masochist heart that has been stubbornly beating for him.. pounding every vivid memories sunken inside my mind.. I woke up from a recurring dream again.. For the countless time, the tears started falling waveringly from the corner of my sight.. until I began to kiss them softly.. “despite the incessant hurting.. I love you.. I love you still..”
