We will get there
Every year as national day approaches, I can't help but to be reminded of you. You were one of my dearest kin in my childhood days, a significant person in my life. The feeling i get when the national day songs play is not like what everyone hears. Melodies of rejoice and happiness as our country grows.
Flashbacks of those days rewind repeatedly through my mind. As the time machine brings me back to that year 8 years ago. It's been long but the heartache does'nt fade. Nobody talks about it much, in fact none at all
But it stayed in my heart since then and never left. I'd never wished to forget.
Time was short, I did'nt expect you to leave us so soon. Had I known, I'd probably have cherished whatever time that was left more. Being young and ignorant, I hadnt cared much or even thought of what was going to happen next. Everytime I thought about you I'd feel so guilty how I thought visiting you was fun and all. Little did I know that every passing day was taking your breath away slowly.
When God finally came to take you into his arms, my heart shattered into bits. I never knew this day would come so soon. I've always wished that it had never arrived.
Till now, I no longer grieve about it but its something that I'd remember my lifetime. Time passes but no matter what comes in the future, the month of August will always hold a special meaning in my heart.
Cherish those around you, never give yourself a chance to regret.♥
