So, I plucked up my courage and went into your profile page.
Read through what your friends have left for you on your timeline over and over again, since last year. I gave a bitter smile as they mentioned how a great man you were. God, I've to use past tense on you.
I read Norwegian Wood during my summer break, and came across this entire paragraph which I can relate so well to:
"Death exists, not as the opposite but as a part of life
Death exists and we go on living and breathing it into our lungs like fine dust.
Until that time, I had understood death as something entirely separate from and independent of life.
The hand of death is bound to take us, I had felt, but until the day it reached out for us, it leaves is alone.
This had seemed to me the simple, logical truth.
Life is here, death is over there." - Haruki Murakami
Yeah indeed you're over there, somewhere so far away that I can't feel you anymore. I hate this feeling, I want to feel you. Is this a sign that I should leave things behind? But no, I simply hate to, 'cause I'm missing you like crazy. That Sunday when I was alone, you purposely traveled down to my home, and passed me the Microsoft software that you bought for me, you treated me to dinner and we laughed as we watched a drama. You were tired from work, I could tell but you just wished to accompany that lonely me. But why? The week after, you disappeared.
I've been avoiding many things related to us, like I've never since ate at the stall we took away our last dinner from, I've never since played board or card games that only you have the patience to teach me among the other 10 over lovely cousins. However, sometimes, there's just a sudden hit that wakes me up from my self denial. Every now and then, the image of your cold, colorless and stiff fingers would flash in my head. The rituals that attended hits me so badly. It reminds me of the last journey we accompanied you through. Those were the days when I could still feel you so close to me. I could feel your spirit,your soul, your voice telling me it's okay. My body and face warmed up so rapidly and I started tearing like mad.
I miss you kor. Where are you? Are you still here with us?
