La Vita e Bella

I am writing to say I am sorry for ignoring you.

Yeah… sometimes I can feel that you want to talk to me

But I keep on postponing – I’m just too busy, you know that…

And now it’s late at night. I’m too tired to share things with you.

You’ll always understand, right?

So I made another promise, ok, tomorrow morning!

And I do try to talk to you in the morning

But from day to day, I can only manage to tell you the same repetition of words

I guess you can see that I do that just because it’s the thing that I do in the morning

Or simply because I don’t want to bear that guilty feeling - since I’ve made you the promise

I do remember you…

But I guess you knew that if I don’t face any difficulties, I won’t remember you that much

I do say thank you for all the things that you give me…

But I guess you knew that it’s not from the heart

And sometimes I realise that I am using you

I am using you to have all my wishes fulfilled

And I know you know that…

But you still there, calling me ‘a friend’…

Giving me a beautiful life

Providing me with everything I need

…

I really don’t know what to say.

Just as I am, full of regrets

I wrote you this letter.

I am writing to say how much I care for you
and to say how much I want you to know me better.

When you awoke this morning,
I exploded a brilliant sunrise through your window,
hoping to get your attention,
but you rushed off without even noticing.

Later, I noticed you were walking with some friends,
so I bathed you in warm sunshine
and perfumed the air with nature’s sweet scent,
and still you didn’t notice me.

As you passed by,
I shouted to you in a thunderstorm
and painted a beautiful rainbow in the sky,
and you didn’t even look.

In the evening,
I spilled moonlight onto your face
and sent a cool breeze to rest you.

As you slept,
I watched over you and shared your thoughts,
but you were unaware that I was so near.

I have chosen you and hope you will talk to me soon.
Until then, I remain near.
I am your friend and love you very much.

~Your Friend, Jesus~

How I Remember You - Michael Franks

If it’s true from the start
That the names of those we love
Are written in our hearts
And we’ll search ’til we find
In this jungle of Confusion
Something that reminds us
How we love each other
Then I think I’ve found the clue
Because I certain I remember you

Through my window I see
How the seasons change like notes
Within some harmony
But the love in our eyes
Is an endless summer
Is a joy that magnifies
Each time we touch each other
And it feels like Deja Vu
As my heart reveals
How I remember you

Day after day I’m amazed
How our love intensifies
In every way it resembles forever
Abandons us never

Like the sunlight that shines
Like the fragrance of the rose
No single word defines
We are tuned to the sound
That displays creation
That our lives revolve around
And searching for each other
From a million hearts we choose
You remember me and I remember you

A chorus of sparrows in summer
Is how I remember you
The fire of maples in autumn
Is how I remember you
The Silence of snowfall in winter
Is how I remember you

Dedicated to my sweet sister… I really miss you! I know we’re so busy these days, we dont communicate that often, but i want you to know that this is how i remember you…. All seasons, every day…

Goodluck for the thesis and everything… Hope u enjoy ur last days in Perth. Hey, you’ll be home for Christmas!!!!
