I’m about to lose a friend, a super close friend I’ve known for 9 years, a trusted friend I grew up with. Every time when I’m down or lost, you’re there to get my feet back on the ground. I know I can always reach you whenever I need you coz you said, ‘If you lost your way, I will keep you safe’. We all have been through so much in these 9 years. You’re married and I grew from 14 to 23 now and you just taught me so much. You showed me what love is about, you pictured what a man is like, and most importantly how a man’s like when he really loves a woman. Though sometimes such a man is a bit too ideal, it’s sweet to hear you talking about that, those subtle feelings. You taught me that love is crazy, it makes you a fool, it gets you up, it brings you down and you’d still do everything for it. I remember 7 years ago, I was lying on my bed the night before going in to the hospital for a surgery. I was really scared and had no idea how things were gonna be like. So many worries were on my head. I told myself if I was to die, you’d be the one I couldn’t let go. That night, I held your pictures to sleep. You gave me strength to face all the fears. When I was 16, I found this guy I met on a bus and liked for 2 years. I didn't even know his name, but you told me if I really liked him, I should have let him know no matter what. And as I was turned down, you said ‘try again, never stop believing, don’t give up on your love, stumble and fall is the heart of it all and someday you will find what you’re searching for’. You were there in those heartbreaking days telling me I’m actually good and there’s no big deal to be imperfect. You asked me to believe in love. From you I learnt it all. And now that I’ve found the love of my life, and we’re so far away that hurts and in the moments that I’m unsure, you keep telling me that this love is true if all you want to do is to be with each other, and for that you’d give anything. Distance doesn’t matter if you have faith. All of the fears and all of the lies are not hard to overcome. Never forget to look back and be thankful for how far you’ve come. All of the fears and all of the lies are not hard to overcome. It’s all in the way you look at it that makes you strong. And real love is forever. There has just been so much in these years. I’ve learn a lot from you. You gave me insights into English language and singing skills. Being on stage was embarrassing, but singing your songs always made the audience listen. It was you and your music that brought me those little trophies. I have to say without you I would never be able to show my talents. Without you, I wouldn’t be the me I am today. One day if I will get married, I have to sing your songs in my wedding. Thank you for reminding me that I still have dreams my friend, thank you for taking my sorrows away, thank you for never letting me down. You always make me smile when I come to you. You are in every part of my life. You mean so so much to me. I just don’t wanna believe that you’re actually going…… You’re in my heart and always will be.
