Last night, I dreamed that I lost someone very important to me. Someone who has watched over me ever since I was young.

I woke up with tears streaming down my cheeks, unable to remember who it was that I'd lost. My mind then slowly wandered to the precious, intangible things I was born with and have cast away. Like a child who will try to reach for the 3D figure in the movies only to be disappointed with thin air, I've tried but failed to salvage them.

My trust, my soul, and my heart - these are what I'd carelessly given, and have never gotten them back since.

*Your departure triggered
A lifetime of homesickness
Because "home is where the heart is."
And mine is still with you.
