Land of Never-ending Summers

0 posted 2001-11-05 01:11 AM



On the busy streets of Orchard
I stood with my 3 good friends
A tap on my shoulder
Not expecting to meet anyone
But I turned
His back was to the glaring sun
Bright light shrouded him like a ghostly cloak

He said he wanted to talk
And he walked off - assumed I'd follow
I took a step towards him
But my friends delayed me
Xiping told me earnestly
That he knows the truth about me
Bewildered, I asked "How?"
Kaile said they had spoken to him so
Tears rimmed my eyes as I felt indignant
How could they reveal something so close to my heart?
Mingli was silent - offered me a hug
I accepted

I was determined - went looking for him
Not knowing where he was - led by intuition
I found him with his friends
I could not control my tears as I spoke
"I never loved you!" I shouted.
"Not now, not before, not ever!"
I was agitated beyond embarrassment
But he seemed totally indifferent
A nonchalant shrug was his only reaction

Belatedly, my 3 friends crowded in
His friends stood and bid us sit
Jiawen was as friendly as usual
I hope our friendship would remain
Angeline was my good friend too
Offered consolation I desperately needed

A shrill alarm rang loud
Glancing around with sleepy eyes
At the out-of-place surroundings
Oh! I was in my room
It was only a dream, phew!
Good heavens! It was so wierd
Was it the full moon that creates such dreams?
It must be an omen - a sign
Maybe I never did bear him any feelings
It was now time to forget him

I stood up and stretched
Glorious day ahead!
