Hide and Seek

sometimes

You would run and hide

and i'd call your name

just like right now,

knowing You'd come running.

i try finding you:

in the noisy nothingness, and quiet emptiness.

looking for something that cannot be replaced:

You.

i call your name:

answering~ my helpless echo:

a delusion;

mirage;

of You coming.

and leaving again:

never seeing you go:

never will I ever.

i know your hiding:

just around the corner:

watching over me;

waiting to be found.

but i miss You.

miss Your playfullness

Your twinkling eyes

Your sunshine smile

You.

they say it's better to have loved and lost

than never have loved at all,

i regret knowing You.

and letting You know me:

all those memories

all those days

all those games

i regret wanting to be with You;

i regret assuring you i''d find You:

because the game was long-ended

i guess it's time to say good-bye.

~ to my beloved dog: Bullet, may his soul rest in peace.
