Farewell, my boy...
So 2005 came and out goes 2006 in a split second- he has lived in Asia for more than a year.
Living and working in Asia was post the time we first met. We seemed so young then.
It also feels such a long time ago. Now he's out of Asia for good...
****
He would have touched down by now, existing half a day behind me.
Just the start of last month, I was still living in the last glimmer of hope that perhaps he would fly home to Santiago via Sydney. But then I was soon to find out that he would be heading for a stopover in London (where he was borned) instead.
Next week, I will finally arrive in Hong Kong (by a twist of fate because Bangkok was cancelled). Only that he will no longer be there.
We miss each other by a matter of days.
Hong Kong- that much anticipated trip to visit him in 2006 that I promised to take but never make.
So what of it and what's the point? I have asked myself way too a many time.
I chickened out and made excuses within myself.
Now it's been more than a year since we parted- come to think of it. Singapore 2005 was the last we met.
Somehow, I feel so 2004...
And it is now already 2007.
People must move on now, musn't they?

Dear M,
Ah, it's the year of the pig. You will be turning 24 then.... time really flies...
Do travel safe and I await a longer email when you next write.
Much Love and besos,
P

It must have been last December that I willed myself to wean off and let go...
Think for once in my life, I just might be able to relieve me of that dukkha...
I wish you blue birds in the spring
to give your heart a song to sing
and then a kiss but more than this
I wish you love....
My breaking heart and I agree
that you and I could never be
so with my best
my very best
I set you free...

I wish you shelter from a storm
A cosy fire to keep you warm
But most of all
When snow flakes fall
I wish you love…
