A good close friend of mine will soon be jumping over to the greener side of the field. I can’t help but feel a void crawling into me. True, we haven’t met much lately, which was really my own making. But with her going, there will no longer be chances for the random lepaking, the mamak dinners at Pandii’s, the walks at the mall or the groceries (yogurt and canned tuna spread are musts), or even the occasional movies. Or simply the good enjoyment of your company.

Soon, all that will be gone. I wish I could stop you from going. But you leave for a better life, which is really a good thing. And to be closer with your inspiration, that’s a huge plus. I know I should be supportive, but at times like these, I really do want to be selfish. I have only myself to hit my head on.

I guess the part that I will miss the most is seeing you smile, the Kate smile.

I know this song already meant a lot for you than it will be coming from me. But here’s to you, for your new found life.

Wish You Were Here
by Pink Floyd

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here

We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have you found?
The same old fears

Wish you were here
