the fragility of winter, that echoes the promises of spring

the fragility of winter, that echoes the promises of spring
In the end, like so many beautiful promises in our lives, our date with destiny never came to be

opposite attracts

Like a helpless child being sucked into the epicentre of a hurrying typhoon,
i find myself falling hopelessly in love with a girl.
stirring juvenile-like feelings of a first love,
she sends my heart fluttering,
and the head spinning wildly,
filling it with endless thoughts of her,
like a old film projector going on and on.

Do opposite attracts?
if i was like a snow flake in the arctic sea,
she was like a splendid breeze on a summer's day.
if i was like a sleepy old town,
she was like a buzzy village square.

Like two sides of a coin,
she is blubby, vocal, sweet, caring, strong, lovely and lovely.
and yet, always showing only one side of the coin,
she rarely shows the sentimental, emotional and saddened side of the coin.

During my short trip to ipoh on the weekend,
i find myself helplessly thinking of her,
longing for her by my side,
as the loneliness grips the suffocating heart,
and eats into the already thin feeble soul of mine,
sending uncontrollable tears of despair through those weary eyes
wishing if only lady luck changes her mind,
and place her gently into my hopeful arms.

and yet,
as predictable as the seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter,
what i hope to be was not to be.
for her heart had, is and will still be with that lucky someone else.
and like a falling snowflake sinking into the icy snowbed,
i can only look up to see her sun and his moon in unison,
as she lays in his embrace,
him showering her with the sunlighting rays of his love.
