Dear Life

Singapore, 14 April 2005


Dear Life,

Hi, what have you been up to? Been busy? Oh, well… as if I need to ask. I am here, as usual, stealing some minutes to drop few lines to you. I have wanted to write this for days, you know…. But something kept on coming in the way, or is it just a guiltless excuse for my laziness and a legal passport for my procrastination?

Do you still meet up with your best friend, Time, recently? A hello-how-are-you-what-have-you-been-up-to conversation over a cup of coffee perhaps? If you do, please send my regards to him. Tell him I miss him. Tell him I am still waiting for the revelation of his beauty.

In his nothingness,
Surrounded by tranquil darkness

In his prevalence of void,
Calling out in a silent whisper
Inhaling me into its endless serenity
Captivating me to the timeless soul

Silence…
Bring me to your embrace

Tranquility…
Bring me to your soul

Serenity…
Unfurl your spirit upon me

Dear Wind,
Please don’t blow, just hush

Dear Fire,
Please don’t burn, just flame

Dear Water,
Please don’t be waves, just be ripples


Yours sincerely,
The Living Legacy of This Erratic World

yanti... thanks for the comments. blog gue emang sepi pisan hehehe...

honestly, when i wrote that, i really did think that it was meaningless, it was just me blabbering around in nonsense.

It is true that I was pouring out what I felt and what I thought on that very night, but I never thought that (in fact I was damn sure) it won't bring any meaning to others.

But your one sentence just proved that I was wrong.

Thanks a bunch!!!
