Ibnu's Going

Trials is over, what a relief.. I was so looking forward to a relaxing weekend before hitting the books again. But something just hit me like a bullet train today. And it left my heart-aching. I can't believe Ibnu's going away, and so soon. I thought we'd have time to catch up, you know, like old times. Just you, me, and ViVien. It has been so long. I don't blame you, or your dad, but I wished I had realised what little time I had long ago. Now that your leaving in November, time seems to soar by, while here I am, feeling so numb. We were never really close, but losing a friend stings all the same.

I wish I had realised earlier
How little time we had together
I would have sacrificed most things
To straighten the creases in our friendship

Living my life under my own clock
Making time for this and that
When I should have just stopped
To appreciate all I've had

Time will not rewind itself
I'd hate to just stare at your back
While you walk out of my life
Doha Qatar is so far far away
I know I might never see you again

I want to hijack a time machine
To go back to when we first met
And our second gathering
To a time when it was so simple
We thought it would never end

I don't want to say
'Don't worry, I've still got time'
Because time waits for no man
Never would I miss that second of my life
Just to look back and say
I wish I had found the time

Time shall tear us apart
Time will move us further
Time is merciless
Time breaks the barriers

But if God shall choose to do so
To take some fate left in his pocket
And grant us destiny between oceans
Perhaps we shall meet again

+++ I'm so gonna miss you Ibnu +++
