For you.

Good day, everyone.

I have a movie critique to be submitted in about 5 hours but I need a break and I wanna write.

Here I am, talking about love again. I used to think that love songs are nothing but bullshit, saying how you would do so many things for your beau. I stood corrected when I experience it myself. And the best part is I have that kind of affection towards my friends. Urgh, I can’t find another term for them. I feel the term ‘friends’ is too distant and meaningless.

Anyway, I love it when I look at them and think to myself how grateful I am to have you in my life. I just thought you should know that I honestly do feel happy when you’re happy. Going through some fuss, getting cuts and bruises are nothing if I can make you happy. Spending some ringgit just so I could see you smile is definitely worth the money. Don’t stress yourself—you’re stressing me out too. Lying to your face is definitely the most painful thing I can ever think of. Or worse—knowing how much you hate me.

Your absence has taught me a lot. And I want to thank you. You just taught me how to appreciate you more. If only I’m brave enough to say to your face how much I want to hug you and thank you for being by my side. Your name is frequently mentioned in my prayers. May you be granted with the utmost love, kindness and trust just as much as you’re pouring to the people around you. You deserve the best in your life.
