Not until the moment she wrote about me in that page
Most things she said about me were quite true, I still wonder
How someone can be so sweet in nature, still wondering
Although to me, I think she can be among the few who can
conquer the world
conquer the world
For she is so quiet, so cool, so brave, so mild
Often times, her smiles make me feel like a man without flaws
No wonder you see her smile with such profoundness of love
within
within
Oh! Such a kind of her is very difficult, not easy to find
There are sometimes in life you just love someone for who
they are
they are
Not because they really care about you, but because this is
you
you
Even when ocean rise, snow falls, you will see them stand by
you
you
It’s true we should never try to wrong the right people
Because we never know when the tide will fall on us
And then we would need someone so close to stand by us all
through
through
Only to find out that we might never see such persons never
again
again
And of course, she remembers that dark night we were both
together
together
When the wind was blowing so cold and our hair were rising
And it was time for me to go home, not until her mind cut
into something
into something
And she deep sighed within herself, maybe she was confused
For she paused a moment and asked me if I had this likeliness
for her
for her
And I was dumbfounded for a while, maybe she just couldn’t
recognize
recognize
Yes, I said yes, I do have this likeliness for you
I asked her too, and she gave me the same reply in a low tone
For a while I felt empty, I departed her presence as if we
were never going to see again
were never going to see again
For she is a man in woman’s clothing, so brave and bold
In my entire life no-one has asked me such a question, not
anyone
anyone
For I should have asked her first before she did, I wasn’t
ready unlike hers
ready unlike hers
And for the very first time in a never time, I dreamt of her
till daybreak
till daybreak
But I tell you now, don’t think about this the other way
round
round
Remember you told me no feelings attached, and I do stand by
it too
it too
The best thing that can ever happen to us is to be the best
friend we can ever have
friend we can ever have
And make use of the opportunity we have now, even though life
could change
could change
For you and I must never have feelings for the wrong person;
it’s better we stay great friends.
it’s better we stay great friends.
This is my solemn words to you this morning.
