"A meteor, commonly called a shooting star and falling star, is the visible trace of a meteoroidas it enters the atmosphere. "
Us was a word long time ago.
When there was no me and you but an us. A we.
But as I said, it was a long time ago; when your place was right here by my side, when your heart and mine found each other. It was very naive thing, almost crossing the line towards stupidity. That after such a long time, I still remember us. Every time I close my eyes, memories flash by like tv channels constantly changed by an impatient person with a remote. It was irritating. Those memories I wanted to forget was still there. They were glued to my mind's eye.
And all I can do was to just sit back and watch.
But to tell you the truth, I wanted to keep those memories untouched until that such time when thinking about it doesn't hurt, until that certain time when I don't regret being happy and meeting you.
You were like this meteor, coming to my world with brilliance that only you had. You visited a world that was so dark and dreary. It was mere coincidence. My world was usually unruffled, happy and contented and you caught me in my darkest of days. It was almost as though destiny wanted me to be miserable when you would come to my life, just a cheesy teen movie. And when it happened, I was happy.
You remained with me for awhile, lifting my dampened spirits with your fire and passion. I thought you were indeed something else. And that was a time when you, the meteor, would be at its brightest in the middle of the sky. I felt wonderful when I met you.
Like a little girl, you got me hoping. You got me dreaming. My wishes and day dreams seemed to make the days grow shorter and the night longer. I was happy just to think about you. I was excited when my dreams turned so sweet when you came.
This was the time when I, the wistful and hopeless girl, closed my eyes and made a wish.
There is of course a big reason why I compared you to a rock and that's because like it, you got my hopes up and you left. Like that damn meteor, you gave me false hopes that I can count on you to make my wishes and dreams come true. Like any other thing that falls in the Milky Way, you disappeared... Taking all and leaving a hollow shell.
It was a mistake to look up to you and admire you. It was stupid to dream and expect someone else to make it come true.
Now, I know that I have to make it come true myself.
Do you get it now, little meteor?
You passed by.
Blinded me.
Gave me false hopes.
Left and took everything with you.
Next time you come around, I'd be ready. When you pass by my world and gravitate to me, I'd arm myself with missiles that I'm going to use to blast you into smithereens. Well, if I can. I don't think it's legal to actually do that. But you get my point.
I'm not going to make the same mistake again.
