Everyday I look forward to seeing you, yet the chances of me catching a glimpse of your smile is harder than scoring a diamond in a piece of rock.

You are in my mind each and every single moment of my life. When I look at the Moon, I think of you, when I look at the Sun, I think of you too. Apparently, I think of you when I see just about anything. You have brighten up my life when it was at its darkest.

Your appearance in my life might mean nothing to you, but to me, you are the sole reason that I continue to fight this battle. You remind me of something I held dearly once, albeit a more diminished form of it.

You are quick to move, and often dashing about. Your coolness further impresses me as each time I see you, you seem to exude an unexplainable aura of attractiveness. You are like a magnet, people tend to surround you. How I wish I had the courage to talk to you truthfully and sincerely?

How I wish we could just be more than friends.

But that will never happen. For we hail from different sides of the world, I am different than what you would think of me.


Maybe one day, we will see each other as best friends. Maybe, just maybe.

I do not wish for anything more than that, yet that alone, might be too much to wish for.

Some of them know you better than I do. How I wish I were them. If only I hadn't make the choice that I've made. Perhaps then, we would be sitting with each other everyday, making fun of all the teachers and students passing by.

We hold no language barrier, for English is not the only language we can communicate in. We hold no cultural objections, for we have the same blood flowing. We hold no differences in view, because your taste do not differ widely from mine. We hold no geographical challenges, for I am staying but a few steps from you.

My quarters point to the south, to where you are living, while yours exhibits my favorite color.

Yet, I find it hard to talk to you. Perhaps time has indeed played a trick on us both. For how ironic it is for me to find connections entwined around you and still, I cannot decipher all these connections to get just a step closer?


I have thus far, not encountered a challenge that I am not able to overcome until you appeared. I find it hard, to do what I do best in your presence.


I hope one day, all these will change. I don't want to just be your friend, I want to be more than that, but less than the most.

Perhaps, one day, who knows? I have done things that I have never thought myself capable of. I have made connections with people whom I would never expected myself to make with. Hopefully one day, you will fulfill my wishes.
