Ame..

With a deep sigh..you inhale humidity.. 

It is cold and you love it..

The ground is glistening wet, and the leaves are dripping..

The sky looks different.. very dark and covered with bold and bright red stains..

You raise your head with a stunned gaze and an oblivious smile..

Your feet drags your steps forward, arms slowly rise as if trying to hold on to the moment.. to physically grab it..

Your mind is blank.. it is just you and the cool breeze on your pale skin..

Your heart flutter, and a wonderful rush of happiness consumes you..

You let out a soft giggle..

Suddenly, your vision blurs ..you stop and just stand there.. overwhelmed..

And it takes only one single blink for the tears to fall amidst a content smile..

 " you are just too beautiful.. rain"

ps: "Ame" is rain in Japanese 

a Peaceful Forever

 

They say don't take everything for granted

But do we ever listen?!

Series of changes leave us stunned with pain or surprise and seldom happiness

It's even ironic for us to call those who believe in forever delusional

Silly how people can be so self absorbed!

We're just happy with things as they are, no twisted change can force us to break our peaceful routine, it has always been easier this way..

Yet changes do happen and none of us would dare to retaliate or even argue

No one questions his destiny after all since he won't get a justifying answer..

Joy, grief, solitude that rapidly and mercilessly attack a fragile heart are just too much

They make us oblivious to the smiles that crept our lips, the tears that blurred our vision, and the tingling that tweaked our hearts

Those just didn't matter anymore..

Even if they say prepare for the worst,

Even if they say stand still, there will always be a confused soul

It sure knows how life goes, but did that soul ever listen ?!

Perhaps it never will..
