epilogue by Grace Nichols:

"I have crossed an ocean
I have lost my tongue
from the root of my old one
a new one has sprung"

oh God,
i love him so very much

LOVE HURTS.




i've been so clueless
all this while
"why am i being ignored?"
was always in my mind





so pathetic
that
i cried silently
all alone
by myself
keep struggling
to keep it out of my mind



jolted
as it strike
doubled up to the pain
i've already had

another loss
i couldn't bear
for the love i've longed
only to realize
it has disappeared



STOP






this is MY LIFE




there's so much more
to see
to
feel
to
reach
to experience
TO LOVE


torturing myself is not gonna change anything!



it's still shaking
but i have to move on
a step at a time
i have to be patient




i'll paint my path

with colours
brighter
with same techniques
using hues that i love
only

with more confident strokes

and wise







~~i am grateful to be granted a chance to live in this world
with LOVE
HAPPINESS and SADNESS
i learnt to appreciate
every single breathe that i take
every single person that i've met
God, please give strength so i can walk
till the end~~
