2011 was ushered in with loose emotional ends and silly hopes of reunion. but for once an expiry date for matters of the heart finally meant something to this stubborn soul. the first two months were well spent appreciating all the kindred spirits who kept me afloat, and simultaneously keeping people of no interest at arm’s length. valentine’s was spent with my dearest of all best friend for the first time ever. 

aching heart on a sleepless night, a chance appearance and so i struck conversation with a crush from long ago. there was no helping it, he piqued my interest yet again. the non awkward first date after six years of absence. 

march came with the promise of fresh beginnings. school by day, him by night. his all weekend. a rainy dawn filled with sweet gestures and charged atmosphere. a kiss under my block. the conventional get together. “blessed” i said.

blessed suffered a sudden death when an old flame of his entwined herself with our april. we said goodbyes without letting go. “it’s only been less than a month, forgetting will be easy” everyone said. “No…” non existent status, but heart and bodies clearly still within reach. 

my twenty third birthday came and went with no sign of a reconciliation. lost the hope but not the feeling nor the yearning. a patch materialized in the midst of exam. his birthday came and went. and it’s been clear blue skies since then. good food aplenty, many late but eventful nights, countless rounds of loving and friendly faces. life has yet to morph into the bitch it always was, so i pray to stay this way. for us all to be happy and healthy. 

been spending the first two days of 2012 with kenny.. nothing to frown over, only everything to rave about
