I was once a troubled, rebellious soul

Like a child who always wants to be lost

To be free from the words

To be free from the hardships

But now as I knew better

Living without your presence is worse than being a lost child.

I always wanted to be lost

Like the lost boys in Peter Pan

As they flew and do things they want to

I always fantasize flying

Like how Peter Pan only thinks of happy thoughts

As he flew around the Neverland

But I can only fantasize being like them

As I drift myself to a deep sleep

Then I can only be like them

The splendidness of the banana touched the softest part in me, awakening the painful memories of my blank mind.

I fear of not being enough

I fear to be such a failure

I fear of not being successful

I fear I'm not going to be a good parent

I fear I'm going to be a disappointment

I fear of not making anyone proud

I fear the most of being alone

Do you remember the first time I swam on the beach alone?

The first time I crashed my bike

The first time I crashed our van on our gate

The first time I drove in a highway

The first nighout I had with my cousins

The first time I lied about my whereabouts

The first time I've seen one of our dogs died

Do you remember?

Life is not about rainbows and butterflies

Everything you have right now might be gone tomorrow

so Appreciate every little things today

and Hold tight to your present, for it will be different tomorrow

Anticipate what might happen tomorrow

but Never think negatively about it

Nicely prepare for it,

because Each day is different from the other
