A promise was made to break
2024.05.18
One year ago, on a Saturday @ 20:10:00, I wrote
"Now, I just remember something to ask you.
If I lost my memory and/or
Was not able to read English any more,
Would you be kind enough to read my life story back to me?
Nay, maybe not, by then
You would have a lovely family
To enjoy and look after.
May I wish you all the best in your life, a happy, healthy and worry free kind of life surrounded by your loved ones."
On the next meeting, you promised by saying: "Of course. I will".
Well, BB, you did not put it in writing,
I honestly believe you were sincere.
I did not know why you said you agreed with it,
When you did not have to.
That was your very first promise
You made to break and hurt me.
That was exactly what had happened.
Everything had gone with the wind,
Every promise you made disappeared in a blink,
Why, BB why? What did I do wrong?
What had happened between us?
Why you could not tell me
What led to our friendship falling apart.
I never expect any thing from you
Except being a good friend.
You hated the governments,
I understood and respected that.
Any way, I sincerely wish you ,
A good health, a happy family
A comfortable life without relying on government funding.
Yeah, go to the under developed country,
Pick a simple but beautiful appearance woman,
With low maintenance, can bear your children,
No Covid-19 vaccination, share your life long passion.
For sure, one day not very far away,
I will forget how to speak and write English,
But you will not be around to help me,
Let along to know about it.
This was not due to geographically distance,
But rather personal preference.
Our friendship was regretedly finished.
Nothing last for ever,
Including my feelings for you.
