I breath better in storm

Thought i would've stopped
Thought this will be the end
I sunk deeper into the ocean
Succumbed into the darkness
Managed to catch my breath in between
And swam back to the surface
Just to find out that 
It's still there
Like a damp crumbled paper painted with  pale water colour shade
That faint feeling ~

                                    stays.

White curtain

I heard. It's a little late but I heard - you quit. It's been a month now - well maybe. I thought i would have a change of heart. I looked at you from a distance while trying to find myself. It occured to me - maybe i will look at you differently now. Well, at least that's what i thought.

So does it mean you are nobody now? Or maybe at least i wouldn't be looking at you so high, like i always did- when i was a houseman still. Will everything become different now?

I guessed i was wrong. Im still trying to find you in my everyday, without fail. Yes, when i was busy you weren't anywhere to be found. But even the least trivial things reminds me of you --The sight of your head lifted up to me when i asked you random question on that very day, your voice i heard when i first met you during my 4th posting - i don't even know your name, i haven't seen your face but i knew it was you after all. Little did i know my heart will go this far - idiotically persistent.

In sha Allah, you'll be under his guidance. You'll shine just like how you always did, as far as i could remember. My thoughts and prayers will always be with you.

They say im a coward - i do nothing. I did not try at all. True. I cant. Just someday, maybe someday, may our path crossed and you'll be able to read this, and know it's meant for you.

And that moment, i hoped it wasn't too late
- and too long.
