Han Jing Wu Xin (Boys Over Flowers Fanfiction)

Memories are photographs, but that photograph was lost long ago on a drizzly morning.

You turned away, and I saw you again.

I looked back, and you walked away.

How lucky we were,

to have learned how to say goodbye so quietly.

And I wait for you far away, only hoping you’ll be happy. Did you ever know?

My love for you was always so quiet, so quiet it made no sound, so quiet I forgot myself.

Only when I turned and left did I understand: you had always been a child who loved a lively crowd.

I couldn’t give you what you wanted.

So I added my own happiness and gave you everything you wished for.

And so we went our separate ways, each bound for the ends of the earth...

When will I truly feel that the years have passed me by?

How long will the flowers bloom?

I don’t know.

I only hope to meet you when I’m at my most carefree. Whether I’m still babbling my first words or already white-haired and old.

I don’t know if the sky will brighten when I lift my head, but I do know that if I keep my head down, I’ll never get to see the blue sky with my own eyes...
