YOU

I had a dream that you didn't recognize me. Then i woke up in a chilly aircon room full of white walls. It looked like a mausoleum. I must be dead. Or something like that. It was good to dream about you eventhough it wasn't exactly good. You are the foundation of everything that i ache and yearn for. You became the mold of the mosaic that i have been building up to now. It was you who broke my heart twice but i broke yours first. I didn't keep figures at hand but it seems that we are apart in numbers. The years, the chances were simply laid out but we didn't even bat a breath to move. Now, I do have every reason to hate Math and Algebra.

You are a reminder of how stubborn and stupid I was. I can even tell you to my grandkids someday. You bloomed right before my bangs could ever grow and spike my eyes. You slipped into my hands like mercury. Well, you are mercury. The more i try to step on you the many you become. And you didn't even know it. Haha! It's so funny how someone can cause a stir in another and not know and even give a damn about it.

I remember that fateful day. My guts splat out in favor of you and all you could say was " Thanks ". And then that word will never be the same. I have my own dictionary of meanings now because of that day. I could even make a new nation and supply a new language. And it was all because of that word. 

And now, I am saying this to you.

Thanks.

Webster can't help you with what it means to me.
