i like to see my loved ones happy, even though this sounds quite sappy. but ever since i wore a ***** i can’t quite grasp what it’s like to be happy.

the “h”-word
you only miss my presence when there is nobody around you. you only miss my voice when there is nobody to speak to you. you only miss my laughter when there is nobody to laugh at your jokes.

miss me?
late night conversations with him, fills me with happiness, right up to the brim his smile manages to penetrate through the pixelated screen, as he caught up with me, and asked me how i’ve been.

late nights
is happiness just a figment of one’s imagination?

happiness
it’s strange isn’t it? the ones who barely know you have the most to say

my love for you grows larger each day, i’m so glad it helps me pave the way. i can never have enough to say, as you automatically brighten my day.

my love;
my arms are outstretched, wide open, ready to embrace you; even when you’re sad and broken.

arms
the final words that you had uttered, cling onto me as my heart fluttered. “thank you so much!”, you stuttered, my heart leapt, for i was flattered. now that seven days have hurtled by, and i hadn't had a chance to say goodbye. i couldn't help but to sigh, so i wrote this piece as a small reply. as soon as the curtain was drawn, i realised i had started to fawn. i stayed up until the crack of dawn, listening to your songs and suppressing a yawn. the days after felt particularly empty, even though i had looped the song “twenty”. the feeling in my heart was still empty, even after looking at images of you aplenty. it was terribly obvious that something was missing, my thoughts just had to do a little fishing. my mind was no use, for it kept dismissing, my heart knew better, for it was reminiscing. two days ago i found out what was missing of mine, i don't know why it took long, it was such a telltale sign, i was on cloud-nine, and it was so divine, i had realised i was missing my sunshine.

missing sunshine;
i can recall these regular tendencies, all the way until my seventies. i adore your little habits, like smiling—with teeth sticking out like a rabbit’s. daily recollections of your actions, pop up in my mind like a distraction. like moments when you cover your mouth as you laugh, i perfectly capture them like a photograph. like when your eyes turn into crescents, no matter the time; past or present. the way the corners of your mouth are curled, it makes my heart swirl and twirl, for it is as precious as a pearl. the faint laugh you produce, echoing around the room to diffuse— a sound so sweet, so pure; to my unhappiness, it's a cure as it puts a smile back onto my face for sure! from your clasped hands in your regular stance, to your endless showcase of your “pin drop” dance, i cant seem to pick a favourite one! but i believe it’s when you make a pun.

habits
my dear; you are a galaxy, a bedazzling multitude of power, of flair. i, an absentminded stargazer;         who dismissed my languish feelings                                        when i first saw you back then i’m a fool; a jester oh, why had i not realised it sooner? for you, are a gift; as beautiful as the lunar.
