Guess What's This

It is a debate whether everyone needs this... We have it from young when it takes the most unexpected of faces. There was a time when our parents were our very firsts, but as we grew older we loathed them most of the time and ended up building a wall with them. We went to school and visited places and we came to know people. People from different walks of life and people with different views altogether.

In our early years, the skies were rainbows and sun shines, and outer space held infinite possibilities, at the mercy of only our creativity. We shared our dreams with each other for a better tomorrow. A time when villains always failed and justice prevailed all. It was perhaps a child's naive touch... or optimistic mind that shaped it from the very beginning... We grew up in a warm sheltered and comfortable Singapore...

Things became complicated as we continued on our own paths. Goodbyes were said and suddenly the skies no longer seem so colourful anymore. There were now occasional rain storms. But this only made life considered living. We had different views about the subject this time. But once again everyone depended on one another to look forward to the sun after the storm. =) We held on to one another and talked things out, forever facing the East where the sun we knew well will rise again the next day at that very spot. There was a time... we depended on these people we called friends because everyone was going through the same thing and understood each other's pain...

Then there was a darkened age... where we started to wonder who we were as our minds metamorphosized into mature brains. While others didn't think back to the past and wonder what it all meant there were also people that did. This would be what everybody would be saying: Think too much...

From love it grew and from loneliness it was needed. Some say they need it more than others while others may find it a waste of time and energy. It was not a matter of independence or dependency. Because two sides to every coin... when there was love, there was jealousy. When there were smiles there were also frowns. =/ It was like a plant. Easy to get but hard to maintain. Because to raise a good pot of plant, we needed a constant supply of sunlight and water as well as a occasional addition of fertilizer...

We faced it... rather I faced it. People my age no longer really need it any more, as do I admit it. We are all too busy about everything else. The pureness or hearts we used to have are no longer. Empty promises and feelings... Best it be let go. Not to fully release it... But maybe to consider playing it as a second fiddle~
