To, my one
beloved, Lion.
Accepting the
fact sucks.
Being away on
full time from you fucks all the good facts today brings.
Having to
finally realize that there’s no more sounds to hear from your breathnig makes
me want to cry.
Having no more
eyelashes to beat; having no more multitalented guy I’ve grown very fond of; no
more of your athletic body appearance; no more anything left of you.
I’m sorry I
sound so selfish. But what should I say when all that was left is sadness
washing over your gone? No one could imagine how serious the pain is nor the
devastation caused.
But oh boy;
how should I describe this to you: this pain I felt?
As if it bled
by the sword that was once stabbed unto my heart is finally forced to be taken,
that’s how it felt. Does it not hurt to see someone bled in pain of the only
sword you stabbed with?
No way, Lion.
I cannot ever want you being gone in my life.
I’ll never
move on.
Your smile has
taken my breaths away.
...
Oh my God.
Why do I ever
have to feel this kind of care in such hours?
Why does
everyone in your room have to look as if they’ve moved on and as if you were
never there?
Why?
Why do we have
to say goodbye so soon?
Why do you
have to leave us?
Why can’t you
live up the rest of the 8 months here?
Why do you
grow up so fast?!
...
And it has
been 2 years, isn’t it? The only year we spent mutually in a class; the only
year I’ve had to know you better. The only class, where you have proven me what
worth you were made up of. And to say least, boy, you had done me proud even
though my heart still ache of your ‘being away’ thing. 2 years since I first
liked your first impression. 2 years since we won the last fight with 10A. 2
years since I knew what having a mentor meant to me as much as having someone
to look up to feels like. You are one of them who made moving on so hard. And
yes, you are also one of those younger people who have inspired me in your days
here. I still loved you the way I did in 10A, but
with the slight difference that I want to treat you as a bestfriend rather than
just ‘kiddy crush’.
Honestly, I
have had a bad time going over today’s final word of yours that you will have to go
on Monday. I still won’t believe that you are going to be away. And that “going
away” is no longer for “a day” away because you were sick or anything – but because
you are going away for good. A day away in time and space – a whole way around
the world. I don’t want to believe you for this time if I ever could. But how
else I couldn’t?
I don’t want
to believe that I was just an inch away from your smile just last Tuesday. That
I was just steps away from your loud breaths, looks, and smile when we share
our thoughts on that last class meeting together. That I was just moments away
from you on independence day celebration. It was just. Months. Away. From just
being another memory of yours.
Dear Lion, you
would’t have guessed how much I wish you wouldn’t leave. How much I wished that
you would realize how much I am into you. How much I don’t want me – the school
and everyone else – to ever forget your belonging and your presence. I hate
seeing you leave; but how can I prevent you from going now? I will miss you. I
will miss your smile. I will miss your presence. I will miss your touch. I will
miss your being wrapped up in such talents. I won’t believe that this day is
ever coming. But if I have my dreams to pursue, then you have yours too. But
Lion, I promise that I will never forget you no matter how much it hurts. I
never will.
Now every love
song I sing out is given unto you.
Now every pain
felt is caused by the scar you left me.
And boy, how
can I move on when I’m still in love with you...
Best regards,
your tigress.
