memories...

Its been a long, long time...many years have past yet somehow the dust have not settled. Images of the past flashed into my mind as though it happened yesterday...the emotions, the frame of mind, the scenes witnessed, burnt eternally into memory and tortured my soul till this very day....

My heart ached so badly. Tears flow uncontrollably. I screamed.

I woke up. My eyes still wet, my heart still acheing.

Was it a dream? Was it reality? Am i really awake?

It has been some time since it happened. No one truly knew what happened. I kept everything to myself, i suffered everything within.

I went to find her for answers.

"Hi , how are you? How have you been?"

She smiled.

"Im doing fine, i guess. Ha...very busy as always..."

She smiled.

"I wished you can see how i have grown and matured into a man i am today."

She smiled.

Her eyes always looked so peaceful, so loving, so kind....

I touched her cheeks, and gently wiped her face

"....its been so long....i missed you, i really do....it wasnt easy living by, but ive stayed true to myself, my dreams, my principles to become who i am today."

My heart wrenched. My tears rolled.

"How i wished, to have you witness how ive grown, how ive matured, how ive lived my life, and tell me how proud you are of me, how happy you are for me....."

She smiled. So gentle, so beautiful...

We sat together for the rest of the day, recalling the wonderful memories we've had together....No words were exchanged as we reveled in the silence of each other's company.

I slept comfortably in her arms....I dreamed...

I woke up.

Was it a dream? Was it reality? Am i really awake?

She was still there. And she was still smiling.

"I love you..i really missed you.."

I smiled.

thank you...thank you for everything that you have done for me...you will always remain in my heart. Forever and ever.
