Why is it that all my favourite songs are the ones which remind me of you? Yet I refrain from listening to them because they suck me into another realm of emotions; just when I thought you numbed me. Why did you have to be so perfect, even in your flaws? Now it's so difficult to find anyone else who could possibly top that. Because anything or anyone else comes in second best. You did it so subtly, so beautifully, so painfully; killing me that is. But then again the life you took away was the same one you gave me. Even with what I have left of you, every relationship begins and ends with you: Because you are ingrained in me. I did the stupidest things when we were together, things that people do when they don't bother about the world. I was willing to do or exchange anything for the bittersweet relationship we used to share. It was different, it was special. It was the state of bliss you'd think you're dreaming. Till today it was the worst time of my life; the emptiest I've ever felt. But with what you have taught me, I realised that summer has to go before fall can arrive. We can't always think that the first spark was the one and only we'd ever feel. Your voice was my guiding light; you were my guardian, my best friend. When I was lost and was a nobody, you believed in me. You guided me to stand up, to take a new direction; to take chances, and your prayers were enough to be my saving grace. But now that the fire has been extinguished, all that is left are ashes of reminders and benchmarks. You have showed me how it's done, is it my turn now?
