with the sword we tore apart,
i carve this message unto you:
brandished bark bears
names etched in time,
our honest tale it shares.
it tells of my meeting you,
brown eager eyed girl,
hair black scarf subdued,
oh precious pearl.
a simple shy hello
and tongue-tied good bye.
so our babbled ballad goes;
a mere shift from high to low.

learning to let go is an exercise in both patience and tolerance. blue days will casually come by and you'll sigh; but so will good days, where you'll laugh and laugh until the pain in your ribs mirrors your misery.
remember now:
(i) it's okay to visit the past, but don't stay long; it is in the past that despair dwells.
(ii) to dream of tomorrow is a right to all. let us strive to achieve our dreams within our means and not burden ourselves with worry over the direction of the wind in our sails, being conscious always of whom we encounter on our voyage through the open sea.
