As I walked barefoot on the shore,
I saw a bottle lying down the pebbles.
Out of curiosity, I picked it up.
And read the letter inside it.


My dear,

Sometimes, I want to take my heart out and put it in the fridge, so it would become hard and icy. Maybe then I wouldn't feel the pain every time you hurt me.
Sometimes, I just wish to have amnesia, so that I will never think of you every minute of the day, and forget all the memories we shared-- totally erased from my mind.
Sometimes, I blame myself why I never played around since then. If I'm a playgirl, maybe I had known how to control my feelings. If I say, ‘stop’, my heart will stop beating for you.
Sometimes, I complain why God has allowed me to meet you and I let you enter closely into my heart, Maybe if I didn't meet you, I wouldn't be feeling the pain inside my heart. I wouldn’t be crying because of you. But do you know the best reason why I need to be thankful that I met you? Because I learned to love. I experienced the best feeling of falling in love, I’ve felt how to worry...to be jealous...to care...to dream...an inspiration for me to fulfil my dreams, to wake up every day with a smile, to love without expecting anything in return. These reasons are more than enough to be thankful why I met you. So I think I'm still a normal woman,
Because I experienced those feelings and most especially, I have experienced the pain of falling in love, so much pain that I thought it's already the end of the world.

Loving you so much,
Lhean

I felt my heart crumple...
Who is Lhean? Who is her love?
Questions in my mind that I couldn't find the answer.
