Wish You were Here

Wooyoung,

I sat on the wet ground dissolved in the evanescence of my soulmate sinking into pain and loneliness, becoming one with it. The distant grey evening gloom, the rain everything was all suddenly infuriating and vexing. My heart squeezed with pain that could kill me. The suffering and ache overshadowing the darkness when I kept staring at the ground where I was holding onto San, with agony and throbbing pain. Deep emotions stirs with no other outlet but through my long-lasting sobs.

The rains suddenly stopped after washing away even the presence of my soulmate.

None of this should have happened.

More helpless tears coursed down my cheeks. What could I do now after everything had happened except to shed tears of remorse?

I was used to the feeling of being left alone, getting familiar with the sweet solitude, finding ways to overcome it, but how can I possibly ever find a way to forget about you?

Why did he have to leave me alone to proceed on in my life without him? Why?

I traced my hands over the rough ground and started talking hoping it would somehow reach San,

"You were a bright kid, always have been. Even though I mentioned I never believed in the concept of soulmates, I used to think about things we could do together. Even if I tried to push away the thoughts about you, it happened to only get stronger. Can I do anything at all now? Sometimes, the best part about taking your classes was to be able to enjoy your goofiness and now it is pain in your absence. I wish you were here, for better or worse, truly..."

I turn my forearm only to find the bold dark letters which said 'Choi San' on my ashen skin had also been washed out.

I could hold the heartbreak no longer as I fell to the floor in a disheveled heap, all my grief poured out in a flood of uncontrollable tears.

What was I expecting?

Maybe in a Wonderland, could we both have had a Better ending, could we perhaps have reached the Utopia? Wish I had an Answer. Our Time Of Love disappeared in a Wave of the wind. If without you, there's nothing more to Win nor anything more to Celebrate, San. Thank U for being the Light in my life for the past year baby.

'How damn erratic could our desires be?

The best of both the worlds appear before me,

but only to vanish into thin air,

He was pure as a crystal snowflake,

melting away in my palms,

I was once again stranded alone,

like a dandelion in gushing water,

Couldn't the evening have lasted forever?

We were two of a kind,

only with the shared wish,

To stay together until the end...'
