One Year of Missing You

Time flies. I can’t believe it’s been a year since that fateful day.

Pei,

How have you been this past year? Are you enjoying yourself in heaven? I bet you are.

Life went on after you left. I thought when life goes on, you will eventually be tucked aside in my heart. But it seems like I was wrong. Thoughts of you crept into my heart often. Everytime when I am alone to ponder over life, my thoughts will eventually come to you. I will think of the things you’ll never have, the life you’ll never live. On my monthly trips to KL, I’ll be reminded of how I missed your final journey. I regret not sending you off. But I was a coward in a way. The trip was just an excuse for not seeing the last of you. In that way, maybe you’ll still be alive somewhere.

I drove past Sin Ming the other day and I thought of your resting place. Alas, I had no courage to visit. I drove past Bukit Panjang and I think of how often I had been there before, but not knowing you were so near. I could have met you for coffee sometimes! And on your birthday I so wished I could have sung you a birthday song. Did you hear my heart scream,”… there are tigers and lions, and the monkeys kiss you!”? We used to sing that and send out kisses in our crazy ways. Now I sing alone.

On the bright side, you are 1 year old in heaven today. The angels must be rejoicing! You take care of yourself ah… till I see you again.

I Philo You.
