"It has been so long since I've written
And it's not as if I don't wish to.
Somethings happen beond my control.
Some are fair or evil.
And so now you shall know..
Another Chapter of My life unfolds"
I've seen many pairs of Eyes.
And till now, I believe they are the windows to one's souls.
Some may seem sly or crafty, yet there are some that are pure beauty.
I won't deny that some girls I know have captivated me with them
But honestly there had only been one pair of eyes...
That can make me see the universe through them.
She was someone I knew when I was young.
I never understood why someone like her was taking care of me.
Early mornings began with hotdogs and Scrambled Eggs
And Before the night ended, I'd have to cry to say goodbye.
The first day I left for kindergarten, I held onto her leg not letting go.
Because I always just love being around her.
I've said these words before,"You're so beautiful"
But none can compare to the beauty I see in her.
She's the most beautiful woman I've ever known.
The one woman I'd want to live with and take care of.
I never knew what love was, till she loved me.
And because she loved me, I'm who I am today.
When I was weak and young she was my strength.
Now I want to be her strength while she is weak.
Just now, I looked into her eyes again at TTSH
And for 15 mins I said nothing, but to look in those eyes.
I saw a sparkle and glimmer of nothing I've ever seen.
As if I could see planets, constellations and the heavens in them.
Watching them softens me, reminds me of a love i feel.
And as she held my hand, I didn't want to let go.
Those eyes belongs to my Grandma.
She's waiting to get an operation done on her hip
Apparantly, she fractured it and is causing much pain.
I wish I had the power to heal her.
I will pray and she shall be fine.
It struck me that, I was a bastard.
I had all the time to tell her and show her how much i love her
But I had to wait for such painful times to tell her that?
People always make this mistake. Though plain and common.
Don't take things that God's given you for granted.
I'm not saying something bad's going to happen,
but I wish I could have been there for her earlier as much as I could.
And so I will be there for her before her op.
I place my complete Trust in the Lord that she'll be fine.
And for those of you reading this...
Remember to appreciate the big and little things God gave you.
It could be the french fries you had at Mcdonald's
Or that guy/girl who had a crush on you.
Maybe it's the hand you held closely and dearly yesterday
Or simply the Pillow that has the scent of your hair.
Whatever it is, Remember to Thank God
