• Yesterday... I had one of the most Magical moments of my life.

  
  

  Seemed so perfect.. so natural and fine.

  
  

  As much as I want to write this down I can't
  Because there are somethings that words cannot tell.
  So here's a picture to tell you what i feel..
  On that day I got romanced on the day I melt.

  
  

  

  
  

  Alas all good things must come to an End.
  Till when shall I see you again?

  
  

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  
  

  If you had wings... Would you Fly?
  If it makes you feel like you're in another world... Would you Fly?
  If your wings were hurt and you never know when they'll be fine...

  
  

  Would you still Fly?

  
  

  These are the exact feelings I had today.
  It was games day at my company (Army) and we were required to sign up with games.
  My dearest friends would know that Basketball's a fav game of mine.
  Because back then, I could Fly.
  Or maybe to me, I felt that I could fly..
  I felt that I could vanish past my opponent, and streak towards the basket.
  And the look of their awed faces pleased me.
  That was what Basketball was to me.
  It could make time stop, make me fly, and give me speed.

  
  

  However, with the recent knee operation I had.
  I was told to avoid any form of streneous activity concerning my legs.
  Jumping, running, squatting was a  no no. And I stood firm to that until..
  Until today, when i decided to join a little friendly game.
  I thought to myself ,"I can just shoot right? I won't run or jump and it should be fine."
  But you all know me. My brudas would know what kind of guy I am.
  If I had the chance to use it, I'd give my all to play it.
  I didn't this time, and i was confusingly glad by it.
  But I did jump a little, and maybe tried to sprint a little.
  But without the jumping and speed, my form was completely gone.

  
  

  The game ended and i managed to get 2 out of the 5 point my team had.
  We lost that match, though friendly but still a loss.
  But just as I was about the get a thirst quincher,
  A senior specialist in my company jokingly said...
  "So many cool moves, but still lose"
  It was there and then, that for once I felt defeated.
  Losing a match because a gave my best is one thing...
  But losing it because you can't give your best is another.
  There I stood looked at my knee and wondered why i played in the first place.

  
  

  Maybe it's best I leave and forget the sports I used to be good at.
  Maybe then, people will remember me not as the guy who had a knee operation,
  But as someone who exceedingly surpassed many in that sport.
  Would it be better to be remembered as a Legend?
  Or as someone who pple always looked up to because of my abilities?
  Or would it be better to play it again,
  but be forgotten and plainly classed as just another player?

  
  

  Which path would you choose?

  
  

  If you had wings... Would you Fly?
  If it makes you feel like you're in another world... Would you Fly?
  If your wings were hurt and you never know when they'll be fine...
  

  
  

  Would you still Fly?
