!!(Something not poetry related)!! (Just something light hearted as a treat for myself hehe)
I smiled, snickered, laughed whenever something funny or coincidental has happened between us. The fun and joyful times, where we would all be doubled over laughing about something funny that we said but don't remember cause laughing gave us a heavy dose of amnesia where all we knew how to do was laugh.
I remembered when we'd ride the public transport together, quietly, but enjoying each other's presence and company. Looking out the window, enjoying how the sun envelops the world; falling asleep whilst listening to music; listening to a podcast as the train takes us to where we planned to go. I've always wondered why we were silent on the transport, having to talk through our silent language of hand and or head gestures, eye contact as our initiation.
While darkness cast a veil over my sensibilities, and I felt like I had to hide, run away, I stayed despite it all and allowed myself to show vulnerability. Allowed myself to cry. I was scared, but I was told to not be, and that I am safe, I would not be cast away easily, that I had value. Hands were held out to me, and I took them just as I took theirs.
I am the tiny star, accompanying the precious moon, and the majestic sun.
Do you think we'd meet each other again, the same way we did here, the same way we bonded here, the same way we laughed together here
In another universe?
I hope we do, always.
