Our Story

NOTE:
I've been wanting to write about this...the story about you and I since I start blogging. =D Only today I seem to find the courage to pen our story down. =P...maybe it's the apple + carrot + cucumber + yogurt juice that my mom made us drink this morning. A sprinkle of mother love in a healthy juice will definitely help you to muster your courage, I think?! lol....

Before we begin

You always lie on my shoulder...
even when my shoulder starts to throb from your heavy dead weight and trys to shrug you off...
but my hand involuntarily hold you...to keep you from falling.
You snug closer to my neck, as though trying to whisper into my ears.

You're so close yet so far away.....
Between us, there is always something that sits in silence.
A distance that you and I can't seem to close in. Ever.

I ask,

We never exchange words between us.
I never ask. You never tell. Yet, we share this common knowledge:
'We fit each other, like pieces of puzzle.
Simply meant to be.
Made for each other.'

"Where's our road heading?"

They say, the person who is worth your tears won't make you cry.
Yes. I've never shed a tear of sadness because of you...
But then, there are times when tears of frustration and desperate would well up in my eyes...
because of you.
No. Wait. I shouldn't blame you. Ever. It's all my fault.

Still...you being YOU...
said nothing at all when you see my eyes brimming with unspoken tears.
Because you know more sound will only make it worst.
Because you know I'll eventually pull myself together, pick fragments of my broken pieces from the ground and fix them together, good as new.
Because you know...
I'll always have you with me to start from the scratch again.

With me guiding you, pulling on you along....

Some phases during our acquaintance,
I was exhausted. And you were no less beaten too.
Still...I insisted that we go on.
But you shrieked.
( ;P Btw, your shriek is the worst horrible inhumane sound I've ever heard!)
The power of your shriek.....
You know that's my weakness.
You know I'll drop everything else and stop whatever I'm doing.
You know you are capable of giving a massive catastrophe headache (earsore too!) at the frequency of your shriek.
You know very well indeed that I can never get you to cast your shriek away...
because the problem lies within me.

Together, creating our bittersweet sad melody...

I know I'm yet to give you an answer.
Half a year later is the deal.
A deal we made from last month.

So, there's five more months.
152 days....
On counting.


I know that
I should put in more effort to flourish the special bond that linked us together...



I'm sorry I'm not that committed. I have only myself to blame.....

Wow.... It is a really well-expressed piece!!... Likely a stream of emotion that I can really feel...!!

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a teardrop.
