Promises...

Ironic.

Smelling the roses, looking at the confetti, how they amounted but I don't have the heart to throw it when I know I'm supposed to.

The memories.

Vivid...

No Promises.

We danced to this favourite song, hummed too its tune, and sang to its lyrics.

It held to us a special meaning, brought us back to where we started, made us hung on when the going got tough.

It has always been this song. Because there was none comparable to it.

I remember every detail, how simple became special. The adverse effects thereafter.

You said the words, and have always fulfilled it. All the lengths you took, the many miles.

*********************************

I know I can only wish...

There are things in the past I wish I can undo.

There are also things in the past I wished I didn't do. The ones that caused your heart.

If only I could see things through your eyes. If only I tried to understand.

If only I heard the words you said. If only I listened.

If only we both started listening. Instead of talking and be unheard in the end.

Perhaps life would have taken a different turn.

Perhaps I wouldn't hover so much weight in my heart every time my mind to that place, that time.


But its time for me to take the step forward now.

So let it be a lesson well learnt.
