Reminiscing in the Sunset

-- Happy New Year again everyone! I know I haven't been posting anything after the New Year. But because I forgot to post my stories here, then I present to you...my works. It's not really good and I don't know if you guys would enjoy reading it but nevertheless, I'll post it. --


As I watch the great ocean, the cool breeze makes my hair sway. It relaxes my mind and not to mention my soul.


I’m just an ordinary person trying to find a suitable companion. But to my discontent, I cannot find anyone. And so here I am, watching the beautiful sunset. Reminiscing the times that I was in high spirits. The times that I was loved. But I cannot forget those days when I was in deep sorrow. Those unforgettable days that I was with someone that understands me. But then leaves me in the end. Someone that makes my day bright. As bright as the sun as I would say. But wounded my heart in the end. I could still remember it like it was only yesterday.

I was sitting in the corner. Not allowing anyone to interfere my deep thinking. But someone walked near me and asked me to join. At first I was afraid, afraid to join others because I would still be
lonely in the end. But I still joined. And for the first time in my life, I was happy. Happy that I have someone that understands and cares about me and even loved me for who I am. Our friendship grew stronger and stronger but that was not the only thing I had in mind. I think that I’m having a deeper feeling than just being friends. I’m starting
to love her. I do not want her to be alone. I don’t even want her to be lonely as I am when I first met her. She has the eyes that I really admired. The eyes of a really beautiful maiden. Those eyes that shine in the night sky. I cannot say that it was really love for I am still young. A young heart is not that ready for real love yet but I didn’t mind. I like to watch her every move. She walks gracefully just like dancing happily in the grass. She talks to me gently like an angel singing.

I shouldn’t have loved her. Why have I felt this? We were never meant
to be. I’m just fooling myself in believing that she would love me back equally like I have loved her. I was wrong. She found somebody else and I was there. She would talk about it to me. And as a friend, I would gladly help her to be with the guy she liked. But deep inside, I was hurt. It was like my heart stopped beating. But I only smiled and let her go. It was all that I could do. I cannot force myself at her. All I could do is support her every step of the way. And so, she and the guy she loved where together. I’m really happy for her because she is happy.


Until this day, I cannot forget that very day that she said yes to that person she had loved. And so I’m here standing watching the beautiful sunset and reminiscing those times I’m with her. I surely missed her smile and even her voice. But now, I’m standing alone in this rock where the waves are crashing it and the wind blowing my hair like I’m being comforted. I started to cry. A soft cry. I knew that this would happen but I didn’t mind. I really loved her but I was not
loved back equally like I have loved her. But I’m happy that I got to experience this. It was not an ordinary feeling.


As I watch the sunset, the waves sang a song in my heart as a sign that I must move on. Even the wind is speaking to me to carry on with my life. But moving on is not that easy. You cannot forget someone who means a lot to you that easily especially if that person has a sentimental value in your heart like I am experiencing right now. But it is true, I should move on. I cannot change what had happened. But somehow, I can still start anew and find somebody else. I’m still young and I still have time. But maybe, just maybe, I should be happy for what I have now. I might lose it in the end too.

Life is short and life as they say is beautiful especially when you lived your life to what will make you happy but life can be hard at times. We mustn’t forget that even in those hard times, we can still go on with our lives with deep faith and with those who are around you.

Loneliness is not always bad. It sometimes makes you think about all those sweet memories you have had. Not to mention those heartbreaking memories that haunts you wherever you are. We mustn’t let those miserable memories affect the way we live our life. Happiness wins in the end.


-End-
