michael

hey, michael.
it's been a long time since the last time i heard from you.
it's been a long time since we met your mother.
since she asked what happened?
and it feels like thousand years, we've been too far.

why.
it was like..one day we are brother and sister.
kept each other.
share stories, grew up together.
and then the next day we became strangers

we used to text with our way, with too shortened words.
no need to worry, we already understood.

now, you write complete word, a short line.
now i write polite reply, a simple answer.

everything has changed.
the bond.
the happy times.
the affection we once shared together.

they said they couldn't imagine
a relationship like us,
they got jealous,
one time because you were too close to me,
the other time because i was always with you.

it was funny.

i had never imagined that someday something would tear us apart.
i thought we would be together, come to each other wedding party, keep our friendship until we close our eyes forever.

if i meet you again, will it be the same?
i'm so afraid
we lost almost 3 years
you've grown up so fast
heard the story, they said you had lots of achievements
i'm proud of you, really.

you're no longer need me beside you
no one will scold you for doing something bad
no one will try to give you 'silly motherly advices'
no one will help you eat your extra lunch when you can't eat all of it
no one will accompany and being accompanied for hours by phone until your mother cut the wire(lol, that's unforgettable, really)
because you already a man.

hey michael, i'll be forever praying for you.
i will never stop being your sister at heart.

lauretta.
