Can’t stop loving you
I met him in April, 2008. I still remember the colour of the shirt he
was wearing on that day...blue.
As I first set my eyes on him I realized that something had happened
inside my mind. But I tried my best not to show it. I was very scared
because he was one of my teachers!
Time passed and I met him almost every day. I knew that there was
something wrong with me. But I couldn’t understand what it exactly was!
Some how I got a chance to work with him this February and the feelings
I have kept locked inside exploded! I could no longer hide the fact that
I was in love with him!
We weren’t friends. I knew him only as another person. Suddenly I got
this shocking news that HE IS LEAVING THE COUNTRY!! I was so desperate
and very disappointed. I felt terrible!
Fortunately I got to get closer to his heart as a friend by something
which I have never expected. We were so close, but only for a short
time. Then he started to move away from me for unknown reasons.
I still cannot find the reason. I love him more than life itself. It
means that I am ready to accept anything he will do in the future.
Whether I have him in my life or not my love for him will never die.I am
not sure whether he knows that there is someone who loves him more than
anything else.
He left the country without knowing it. This is my story and I am
waiting until time gives me a favourable solution. It is really hard to
bear the feelings which make my mind crazy. I cannot stop loving him for
any reason. It is hard to discover why! I love him more than anything in
this world. I wish him all the success and happiness in his life! -

The wait
Sometimes I want to run
But you tell me,
I might fall and cut my knee
I long to fly high
But you clip my wings
Because I would hurt myself if I fall
I want to break free
And feel the rush against me
But I don’t attempt, I know you well
The emptiness I feel
The disappointments I overcome
The frustrations I fight
Makes me weak sometimes
But I can’t cry out, you won’t understand
Though we are part of a team
Your views are different
You don’t want to hear mine.
The cure I suppose is to risk the fall
Whatever form the outcome be
My heart will be satisfied
For I am curious no more
But I can’t disobey, I love you too much
So when will you set me free?
For flying itself takes time to master.
