friendship and love, re-lived...

inspired by the movie : The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

i wish i could have watched it with you. it would have been nice to hear what you thought of the many tear jerking scenes, while they on the screen hardly showed tears.

oh yes, i cried! and i cried a lot, i know. and knowing me more, i'm sure you would have guessed just that, and are perhaps laughing now hearing me admit it without shame.

there are still some tears left as i write this. and they pave the path fresh for me to go back. to reminisce and re-live without fear, this time, each moment that i eluded an inch away from pain.

now i can touch them, and hold them as my heart burns, and keep them, keep them till all pains have shied away, leaving only nights and days remembered glittered with love that friendship has gifted us, back when we were....oh well, you know, back then.

what one can give for friendship huh? and only he who gives will understand how he can, only he knows why he will.

for what good is love if not shared? and what value is life if it holds no one dear?

no, dont bother. as in the past, i still wont argue with you on anything. i can never beat you with words, much more your eloquence. you kept saying i'm all heart, and unfortunately that heart learned to throb in silence.




you say i should not believe every story i hear. can't you see? believing is not where starts, nor where it ends. every story touches. and tear a part of me as they end. and when they leave, they take that part with them and i will never have it back, not in the same shape and form they have been taken. and so little pieces of me begin to live in those stories. i become a part of their truth and to me they become real.






well, it was just story another ended. as i watched, it made me remember: you, and parts of your yesterday; me and my foolish hope for tomorrows; us and a time we lived forever.






oh! don't ask. you'd know the answer. shall i watch it again? as hassan, the kite runner, have said : for you, a thousand times over!
