Vows Of Sunset ; Pageone (edited)
Sunday, July 11, 2010 @ 12:50 PM
Vows of Sunset Children’s laughter filled the beach. They sounded so happy, so free. Those memories are the ones I miss the most. Being carefree when I’m young and naive, running across the beach in my homeland. But we could never go back, to the beautiful childhood we once had. I snapped myself back into reality as the wave crash loudly onto the beach. The lighthouse shines brightly onto the deep blue sea, guiding the boats to the port. I walk towards the bay of the sea carefully, in order not to step on the sandcastles near me which the children carefully build. The clear blue water at the bay splashed upon my worn slippers, washing away the dirt on them. I watch the dirt ran through the long and wide sea, as I wonder what lies under the surface of it. The view at the beach was magnificent even though it was never perfect. The sky was in dark orange, with the clouds playing in the sky. The sun sets down and waits for the arrival of the moon. Families around me are packing up to go home for dinner with their children whining to stay longer. I chose to stay there; the dark orange sky attracts me. The powerful wind blow against my face, my hair flies backward fearsomely. The smell of the waves and wind overpowered me. I felt as though I’m back to where I was in the past. The beautiful childhood I once had, and gone. In between my thoughts, I cried. I thought of that (a boy’s name) when I was little; the guy who swept me off my feet. Suddenly, a hand wrapped around my body. I stay for a while, closing my eyes, enjoying the experience of being hugged so closely and tightly. It was like a beautiful dream, more like an illusion. I could not tell. The way this person held me was so different. It felt as though I was a little child again. I smiled for the first time in ten years. He kissed me on the cheeks, his lips felt so soft and tender. Butterflies start to flutter in my stomach as I start to turn to look at the person, but that person was gone. I look around the lonesome beach and I was the only one around in it. I sighed; I miss (a boy’s name). I am so foolish; it had been ten years since he left. The vow he never kept. Just then I woke up. It was all a dream, as expected. Ten years without being able to see the guy’s looks. Is this a nightmare or purely a dream? I hoped it to be real, but if it was, I could never see the guy’s face at all. I stand up lazily and reach for the long curtains to open out to a whole new world. The sunrays blinded my eyes; I closed my eyes and saw the lonesome beach appear. Then I opened my eyes slowly, it was all gone. The scene that replaced it was buildings of tall houses and roads filled with cars full of families. It was a Saturday morning; families were going out for a day outing. Most parents need not work on weekends, they all look happy with their children around. A couple of chirping blue birds flew towards my window. I see them sing happily by my side. The way they sing, they sang from their souls, warming the hearts of people whom they were singing to. So, at this point of time, they were warming my heart too. The cold and heartbroken heart they are singing to. I cried. Their songs of love made me think of that guy I called (a boy’s name). The guy I knew since birth, the one I loved the most and never forget. And the one that broke my heart ten years ago and never did bother to mend it. He was gone. I loved him with my heart and soul but he disappeared without a trace. I love him, and always will. @ Copyrighted ! Written by Hazel.L (: |
